Christmas dinnerware sets, holiday plates, serving platters and festive tableware for hosting Christmas dinner.
Dressing your table for the holidays starts with the right dinnerware. This guide reviews the top Christmas dinnerware sets from trusted brands like Lenox, Pfaltzgraff, Mikasa, and Spode to help you find the perfect match for your holiday gatherings.
Holiday dinnerware is used a few times a year, so choose a style you will want to bring out every December. Classic patterns such as Christmas trees, holly and plaid stay in style longer than trendy designs.
Material affects durability. Stoneware is heavy and sturdy, porcelain is lighter and more refined, and melamine is shatterproof, which suits kids' tables and outdoor parties. Count place settings: sets of 4 or 8 are common, and serving platters and bowls are often sold separately.
Check care instructions. Dishes with gold or silver trim are usually not microwave safe, and some hand-painted pieces need hand washing. If you prefer easy cleanup, look for dishwasher and microwave safe labels. Buy one or two extra place settings for unexpected guests.
Mix holiday salad or dessert plates with your everyday white dinnerware for a festive look at a lower cost. Complete the table with centerpieces and table decor and Christmas mugs.
