A little guidance
Begin with the meals you love. A few well-chosen pieces can work together for quiet breakfasts, everyday dinners and meals shared with friends.
Choose a dinner plate for your main dish, a bowl for rice or soup, and a small plate for sides. Start with the pieces you will reach for most, then add more as your table grows.
Let one colour or finish connect your pieces. Pair a patterned plate with a quieter bowl, or combine round dishes with a rectangular plate. Small plates offer an easy way to introduce a new colour without replacing your favourites.
Check dimensions against a dish you already enjoy using. For ramen, allow room for noodles, broth and toppings; for sushi, consider how many pieces you usually serve. Check capacity where listed, as depth changes how much a bowl holds.
Good to know
