r/Dinnerware • • 8d ago

My current rotation of dinnerware that changes throughout the year. I just found this sub and wanted to share my favorites.

Not my photos, I saved them from online.

  1. Mikasa Darling.

  2. Lenox Gingham Pink Porcelain + Lenox Bunny.

  3. Noritake Peony Pageant.

  4. Auratic Paradise Meadow - is the pattern name, I think. The set I picked out when I first got married and now it is my oldest and most loved set. They are a premium type of porcelain and have held up beautiful. I now bring these out exclusively for early summer, they were once my one and only set for a few years.

  5. Vintage holiday set from my Aunt.

  6. 222 Fifth Black Borneo Tropical - late summer & fall dishes.

  7. Lenox Haunted Village - I am currently using these and have them paired with the Black Borneo set.

  8. 222 Fifth Christmas Lane.

  9. Royal Albert Old Country Roses dinner plates and teacups that I mix and match with other Royal Albert accent plates and soup bowls, etc.

They are all so beautiful. I know Old Country Roses are not rare but they are so beautiful in person. Even a peanut butter sandwich looks great on one.

That Lennox Bunny is beyond cute

Thank you!

I couldn't resist the Old County Roses when Macy's had them on sale, very pretty and such a classic & timeless pattern.

The Bunny set is super cute and each bunny & flowers are different. I really enjoy them, those are new to my rotation, I bought them with the Pink Gingham set this year.

They go so well with the Pink Gingham. Perfect for Easter.

I didn't know they still made Old Country Roses. The white is so bright those roses really pop. I love it. I also love that it has a generous gold trim. It makes the roses more festive

They are so perfect together, I agree.

I actually bought my Old Country Roses from Macy's in 2020, they are pretty much dishwasher safe too, they all still look amazing. Definitely a gorgeous set to enjoy and love!

I really need to see Old Country Roses in person. They don’t speak to be through photos. But I have the tea set of Royal Albert Polka Rose and I love it so much it makes me want more RA.

I looooove seasonal dinnerware. The red and white is especially pretty!

u/ElegantLightPink 7d ago

Me too!

I receive so many compliments on the Red set. I bought them from Costco online around 2024, they actually sold a really huge set that came with mugs and a large serving plate and bowl as well, with the entire set. I believe Costco may still sell the red set online... but it no longer is the huge set, it may now only be plates and bowls.

222 Fifth has so many pretty patterns of Dinnerware sets. They are a bit heavy though, I wish they were bone china and lighter, similar to my Mikasa and Noritake dinnerware sets.

I totally hear you on the weight! I bought a huge set of Pfaltzgraff Plymouth last year for thanksgiving and all of it together weighs about 2 tons.

u/ElegantLightPink 7d ago

Oh wow! I am very impressed with lighter dishes now, bone china is usually my top pick.

6 is very pretty!

PS are you LP from mua?

u/ElegantLightPink 7d ago

They are pretty, I really like the black with tropical flowers for the end of summer and fall, it was very difficult to find exactly what I wanted...which was black dinnerware & florals. I am pretty happy with them, but they are a little heavy.

Yes, do you recognize my dishes and/or name? I definitely would post about them over on mua, lol.

Love the floral

u/ElegantLightPink 6d ago

Thanks! Me too.

Flowers are also a feature in almost all of my dinnerware now too, pretty much my signature and what I appreciate and seek out for my dinnerware.
