Now listen, I’m no killjoy when it comes to celebrating this or that holiday. I’ll gladly carve a pumpkin and hang some decorations during Halloween and you can bet your boots that I’ll fly a flag during Independence Day. But if you look around my house for heart-shaped candy bowls during Valentine’s Day or bunny statuettes during Easter, you’re not going to find much. Overall, our house is decorated in a rather minimalist style, really.
But when Christmas rolls around, things are a bit different. We have two trees inside and lights adorning the windows and roofline outside. There are garlands aplenty inside and out, several miniature Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus figurines, snowmen, candles, and all sorts of other decorations. And when it’s time for the Christmas feast (on those years my house hosts, anyway), out comes the Christmas dinnerware.
If you’re hosting a holiday dinner this Christmas, or if you’re looking for a very last-minute gift for someone you know who loves hosting holiday feasts, then the Spode Christmas Dinnerware Set is the perfect buy. (And yes, as of the time of this writing, you can still get these charming plates, mugs, platters, and more in time for this year’s Christmas celebration.)
The salad and dinner plates and mugs included in the basic 12-piece set are perfect for dressing up a holiday table and work beautifully to complement any other white dinnerware and clear glassware. But if you want to really go for it and dress up your Christmastime table, Spode also offers platters, serving bowls, two shapes of goblet, water glasses, soup bowls, and even flatware, all of which features the same charming Christmas tree designs.
Beyond the timeless style of the pieces from the Spode dinnerware lineup, you will also appreciate the durability of this stuff. Made from solid porcelain, these plates, mugs, platters, and bowls are safe for use in the freezer, fridge, microwave, dishwasher, and even in the oven. They resist chips and cracking and should last for years if treated with a bit of care.
Start your collection of Spode Christmas dinnerware this year and add to it over the subsequent holidays, or make the investment now and set up a stunning holiday tableau this Christmas weekend.
