A Christmas dinner is always special. Family coming over, friends getting together, great food, and great drinks all complement the extravaganza of a gala Christmas dinner. If you are hosting a Christmas dinner, you’re certainly aware of every part of your arrangement, and mindful to make your presentation as perfect as it can be.
Every part of the experience is integral to a Christmas dinner. It isn’t as simple as serving the right food and drink, or your choice of vibrant and lively decoration. Choosing the right Christmas flatware and dinnerware to complement your holiday arrangement is very important as well. Christmas is a special occasion; serving your appetizers, meal, and desserts on your everyday tableware may not be appropriate. If you truly want to make a lasting impression on your Christmas dinner guests, using elegant Christmas dinnerware is key.
Christmas Dinnerware Brands To Consider
When it comes to Christmas dinnerware, every company has its niche, and there are a handful of companies that specialize in it. Christmas dinnerware should be separate from your normal selection of dishes, flatware, cutlery and platters you utilize every day. Special occasions demand a special setting and treatment. The brands you choose for your holiday place setting should be the very best at what they do.
- Noritake is a company many have associated with Christmas dinnerware for more than a hundred years now. Their products are durable, affordable, and aesthetically pleasing. Noritake’s astute craftsmanship and attention to detail is obvious in every piece of Christmas dinnerware they offer. Their reputation as a top international brand certainly make them worth considering for your holiday dinnerware purchase.
- Lenox is not a new name for Americans. They have been a leading tabletop and gift-ware brand for many years now, and their holiday collections are no exception. Lenox crafts amazing cups, dinner plates, mugs, saucers, and serving pieces that will quickly add elegance and cheer to your Christmas dinner!
- Boasting one of the most diverse collections of Christmas dinnerware, Spode is clearly one of the finest British dinnerware brands, and certainly a worldwide favorite. Their Christmas Tree line of dinnerware, which was designed in 1938, has become a traditional holiday favorite.
- Oneida is another popular brand of Christmas dinnerware. Offering a slightly more modern, contemporary look, their dinnerware selections can add vibrancy to your table setting without being overly formal. Oneida offers a range of holiday selections, ranging from butter spreaders, to cookie plates, even holiday themed cutting boards!

The Basics

First off, there are two different ways to properly set a table: formal and informal. Whether dining out at a restaurant, dining in another’s home, or hosting guests, there are things you should expect as well as know as it pertains to table settings. For starters, just in case you have never been properly informed, the forks, knives, and spoons are placed on the side in which you are required to hold them when cutting and eating. For proper etiquette this means the forks go on the left and the knife and spoons on the right.
