Start with what is missing from the cupboard

Every piece is listed on its own page with its size, its material and its shipping weight, so you know what is arriving before it does.

Table planner

How many do you feed, and in what

Pick the number of people, the material and whether you want serving pieces or a tea set. We put together the smallest set that covers it and add up the total. Nothing goes in a basket until you click it.

Three materials

Porcelain, stoneware or bone china

They are all ceramic, fired at different heat from different clay, and they behave differently at the table and in the sink.

Porcelain

Bright, light, goes with anything

Fired very hot so it comes out hard, white and slightly glassy. Thinner and lighter than stoneware, stacks neatly and suits every kind of food. The safe choice if you are buying one set to last.

Stoneware

Heavy, warm, made for daily use

Thicker clay with a matte or speckled glaze. Heavier in the hand and harder to chip at the rim. It looks at home on wood and linen and holds heat well, which is why pasta bowls and mugs are so often stoneware.

Bone china

Thin, bright and stronger than it looks

Porcelain with bone ash in the clay, which lets it be fired thin and still stay strong. You can see light through the edge of a cup. Tea tastes better from it, and it is the set that gets handed down.

Questions

What people ask before ordering

Take a photo of the broken piece and the box and send it to us within seven days. We post a replacement free, and you do not need to send the broken one back. Crockery travels a long way and sometimes it loses, so we build that into the price.

Everything is dishwasher safe. Everything is microwave safe except the bone china and the painted cake stand, which we suggest hand washing to keep the pattern bright. Each product page says exactly which.

Yes. The dinner plates, side plates, bowls and mugs in our porcelain and stoneware sets are sold in pairs and small sets too, so you can replace a broken plate or add two more places without buying another full set.

Our dinner plates are 27cm across and side plates are 20cm. That fits a standard dishwasher rack and most kitchen cupboards. Measure the inside depth of your cupboard if you have older, shallower units.

Every piece sits in its own moulded card slot, and sets are split across more than one box so no single box is too heavy for the carrier to handle gently. There is no loose packing and nothing plastic to throw away.

Yes. The twelve plate set and the larger dinner sets are popular with small cafes. If you need more than that, email us with quantities and we will quote a trade price.

Not sure what will fit? Ask

Tell us how many you cook for and what you already have, and we will tell you what to add and what to skip. We would rather answer an email than have a forty piece set sitting in your hallway because it was the wrong one.
