Stylish Thanksgiving Dinnerware That'll Elevate This Year's Celebration

While blue seems like a surprising color choice in fall, this mesmerizing hue is the perfect scene to capture any guest's attention. The post-turkey haze doesn't stand a chance.

Go dark and moody with these stunningly detailed floral print plates. Paired with gold flatware and brighter accents, these plates will surely make a statement come dinner time. And the best part? They're melamine and virtually unbreakable.

Paper plates may be an unconventional pick for Thanksgiving, but that's probably because we tend to think of super-thin flimsy white ones. These, however, will totally change your mind. Not only are they pretty to look at, but they're equally durable. Plus, you wouldn't even know they're paper unless you touch them.

We love the unpredictability that comes with reactive glazes. Basically, non-formulaic kiln firing process makes it impossible to know how the pottery will turn out, meaning no two pieces look the same. This cool set, which is on sale, comes in a sea-inspired palette and a bold black-and-white.

Keep it simple, delicate, and formal with this white dinnerware set adorned with gold foil botanical prints.

If you're into creating an epic buffet spread for your Thanksgiving feast, white plates with a nice gloss and speckles are another classic option. These plates are minimal and keep the attention on the hours you spent cooking the delicious meal.

Vibrant tableware by Oscar De La Renta brings playful elegance into your dining room. The orange hue gives your table the extra punch you're looking for.

Even the pickiest eater will have no choice but to admire this rustic green cabbage set. Conceived by Portuguese ceramist Bordallo Pinheiro, the leafy green will tie in your homemade meal in a cinch.

Who needs autumnal colors when you can go with an all-season set like this gray dinnerware? With its thin gold rim, it's special enough that it can easily be dressed up for the holidays, but not so fancy that you can't use it casually, too.

Your guests may not be able to see the charming and colorful speckles on these scalloped bamboo plates under the heaps of sides and turkey, but they're still worth using. Not only are they affordable, but they're also eco-conscious and dishwasher-safe.

Another stunning example of reactive glaze is this 16-set. It's a bit more subtle and boasts a mystifying iridescence from which we can't look away. Additionally, they're simple enough to use daily while being distinct enough for a festive occasion.

Thanksgiving may be all about the turkey, but the appetizers are just as important. This set of gold-rimmed plates is inspired by ancient Chinese porcelain and makes for an elegant alternative to plain white dishes.

Wooden plates may seem difficult to clean and heavy to lift, but these are deceptively easy because they're made of teak (typically found on boats, so you know it's durable and can withstand some wear and tear).

House of Hackney's recent collaboration with Anthropologie had us frantically clicking "add to cart." Technically, they're dessert plates, but what's Thanksgiving without a slice of pie? These charming dishes boast House of Hackney's classic vintage-inspired patterns—all of which pair perfectly with one another–in a glossy finish.

Speaking in paint-friendly terms, this dinnerware set comes in a semi-gloss finish because it's not overtly shiny, but not matte either. On top of that, it's available in eight whopping colors including navy, cream, and our favorite, blush.

BPA-free, dishwasher, oven, and microwave-safe is what this dinnerware is all about. Moreover, it's affordable and the black colorway will make it an eye-catching conversation starter.

You can never go wrong with a classic set of white dishes. We love these ones because, even though they're simple, the textured pattern gives them some irresistible dimension. They're also on sale, which never hurts!

Sometimes the simplest option is the best, which is why we are obsessed with this five-piece set of plain white dishes that don't skimp on elegance. Finished with the perfect amount of gloss, they are bold in all the right ways. Did we mention that they are ergonomically designed to feel comfortable in your hand?
