Factors to consider when buying crockery

Crockery is an essential part of your tableware and can greatly enhance the presentation of your food and the overall dining experience. With so many options on the table, you’ll need to spend some time thinking about which items are right for your needs. Some important considerations include:

  • Type - Consider the specific type of dinnerware you need, from dinner plates and side plates to cereal bowls, rice bowls, soup bowls and more.

  • Design - Crockery comes in all different colours and designs to suit every kitchen decor. Consider your existing space and whether you require crockery that’s classic, minimalist, earthy, arty, modern or something else.

  • Storage space - The amount of crockery you purchase needs to fit comfortably into your storage space when it’s not in use.

  • Sets or individual - A four-piece or five-piece dinner set is an easy and convenient option for families, while individual pieces let you mix and match your colours and designs.

  • Lifestyle - Will you be using your crockery for casual, everyday use or reserving them for special occasions? Do you prefer to dine indoors or alfresco?

  • Shape and size - This will depend on the type of crockery you choose, from large dinner plates to small condiment bowls. Think about whether your chosen crockery size will fit into the available storage space.

  • Material - Crockery can be made from various materials, including bone China, porcelain, stoneware and earthenware. Melamine crockery is best for outdoor dining and kids as it is virtually unbreakable.

  • Dishwasher and microwave-safe - Dishwasher-safe crockery makes cleanup a breeze while microwave-safe crockery allows for easy reheating.

  • Price - Have a clear budget in mind when it comes to crockery and stick to it. A dinner set can be a cost-effective option to get everything you need in the one product.

Essential dinnerware to have at home

The dinnerware you place on your dining table needs to be functional as well as elevate your table setting and tie everything together. From plates and serving bowls to glassware and accessories, check out these must-have items to include at your next meal:

  • Dinner plates These plates are a must when it comes to dinner. They are large with enough space to contain the main course of a meal.

  • Side plates - Side plates are smaller in size which makes them great for entrees and salads.

  • Bowls- Bowls are essential pieces for almost every meal. You can find cereal bowls for breakfast, salad bowls, rice bowls, pasta bowls, small condiment bowls, deep soup bowls and more.

  • Serving bowls - These bowls are larger for holding piles of delicious food ready for serving up individual portions around the table.

  • Drinkware - Don’t forget about drinkware to enjoy your favourite beverages while dining. This can include everything from espresso cups and mugs in the morning to wine and cocktail glasses at night and teacups and saucers for afternoon treats.

  • Cutlery - Choose cutlery that will complement your chosen crockery and drinkware. A stainless steel cutlery set will combine knives, forks and spoons into one package and is highly durable and shiny for maximum aesthetic appeal.
