The Look...for LESS

I adore the Tiffany & Co. Weave china. It is a wonderful, classic pattern and there are so many great pieces you can add to the set. It is perfect for luncheons, daily use and even casual dinner parties.
I was therefore very excited to stumble upon this:

Martha Stewart French Cupboard at Macy's

While it is noticeably different, you can get the same look for less (think eight place settings for the price of one). White china is great for mixing and matching at parties as well as everyday so I might just have to expand my collection!

Look at the Wedgewood Nantucket Basket, I use it for everyday and you can buy it at the outlets!

It also goes with the pattern "Wild Strawberry", another favorite!

i love it when you post about looks for less! i have a similar pattern my mother gave me when i got my first apartment after college in chicago. i believe we were inspired at tiffany & co., then bought at the old Marshall Fields downtown. I still have the set -- 15 years later! Just goes to show, a classic never goes out of style!

Wow, love the crispness of this. Any dish looks wonderful on a clean, white plate. :)

I love the Tiffany & Co. weave pattern and plan on registering for a few serving pieces. While it is great year round, to me, something about it has always screamed "Thanksgiving."

There is nothing as fresh as white dinnerware. Lovely. :) xoxo

I love Martha Stewart. Period.

Beaufort Belle said...

I love both patterns! However, I too suggest you check out Wedgwood's Nantucket Basket. I also went with all white and my pattern, though casual and used daily can also be dressed up for special occations. I don't think you can go wrong by picking an all white pattern because food always looks good when plated. That being said, I really wish I had checked out Nantucket Basket better before choosing.

Thanks for sharing more looks for less.
