Elza Hean |

Getting the right tableware or dinner sets can be tricky especially when you’re spoilt for choice. There are some who prefer a more traditional, classic style of a plain white finish. Others may prefer a tinge of colour for a more cheerful look. Let’s not forget the ever-ambitious shapes and vibrant colours that can possibly fit your perfectly themed party. We’ve got a selection of awesome dinner plates, side plates, cups and bowls – all ready for your picking.

1. The Set for Every day: Versatility for Casual and Formal Dining

Find a dinner set that’s suitable for both casual and formal dining; that way you can save cost and space in your cabinet! We recommend investing in a good quality set that you can dress up or down with serving utensils. If you’re looking for a dinner set for your everyday use, the 12-piece set should suffice.

2. Bone China or Porcelain are the Ethos of Dinner Sets

Porcelain or bone china are fine materials for dinner sets and you can never go wrong with it. Their gloss finishes make it easier to clean making it suitable for every day use.

The splash of ocean blue adds character and a sense of calm behind Ecology’s Ocean 12-piece dinner set range for a small party of guests.
