Fine China Brands

I am trying to register for some gifts and have never thought about Fine China until now.  Can we say OVERWHELMING!  So many types and patterns.  I want to get a brand that is good quality and willl last for years but not sure what makes are best.  Any ideas/suggestions?

  • I think mine is Mikasa.  I totally agree with PP!  Go with something that is neutral and timeless.

  • Yup, we definitely went with something basic, but very nice. Ours is the Noritake Platinum Wave pattern.

    We considered that one!  FI didn't like it as much as I did though.  We ended up going with Brocade by Waterford.  It's a little more ornate and will go well with FI's great-grandmother's china.
  • Great!  Thanks for all the info!  I was sure which brand to get (if one was significantly better than some others).  The plan is to keep it simple.  I love the Brocade pattern aswell, and think that will be what we finally decide on!
  • We went with the Kate Spade Gardner Street Platinum Collection.  I love the silver vines.  It is a timeless piece that I hope to pass down to my children later on in life!
