How to choose handcrafted ceramic tableware for an elegant interior
A practical guide to choosing handmade ceramic plates, bowls and dishes — buying advice, materials, care and decorating ideas.
Handcrafted ceramic tableware is more than just a utilitarian object: it tells a story, embodies craftsmanship, and transforms an ordinary table into an elegant and inviting experience. Unlike mass-produced goods, each piece is unique, handmade, and designed to last. In this article, we guide you step by step in choosing your handcrafted ceramic plates, bowls, and dishes to enhance your home and your shared moments.
The essential criteria for making the right choice
Size and use
Before you fall for a piece, ask yourself: what will it be used for?
- Small bowls : perfect for breakfast, desserts or tapas.
- Large serving platters : ideal for meals with family or friends.
- Flat and deep plates : essential for creating an elegant and practical table setting.

Style and colors to suit your interior
Neutral tones (off-white, beige, light gray) blend perfectly into a minimalist interior. Vibrant colors (cobalt blue, emerald green, terracotta) bring warmth and character to a table.

Unique pieces vs. matching sets
A set of plates creates perfect visual harmony. A selection of unique pieces adds an eclectic and artistic touch to your table setting.
The importance of materials and finishes
Not all ceramics are created equal. The finishes (glazing, texture, gloss) influence both the aesthetic appeal and the durability. A well-glazed piece is more resistant to stains and retains its shine longer.
Adapt handcrafted tableware to your lifestyle
For everyday use
Opt for robust and easy-to-maintain pieces: durable bowls, plates and mugs.
For special occasions
Focus on presentation pieces (large platters, carafes, decorative vases) that become the centerpiece of the table.
Mix & Match
Don't hesitate to mix different styles and colors: a handcrafted ceramic service lends itself perfectly to creativity and reflects your personality.
