Pickard-Elsie.jpg

Charlotte Moss new Elsie pattern is a seasonal chameleon. In the summer, this treillage design is a hint of the garden without being as obvious as flowers on your plate. And in the winter, one sprig of holly for garnish and it is a modern Christmas pattern without the partridge. Moss, the interior designer gone product, has just hooked up with Pickard for her collection. Pickard also produces the plates for Camp David, so you know this is quality china. Dishwasher-and-microwave-safe, it is for holiday and everyday.

Depending on her mood at the wheel, Lois Ruben Aronow’s work has the delicate look of egg shells or the roughness of a cantaloupe. This fabulous beaded texture is achieved by Aronow’s careful glaze formulation, application, and firing. But these nature-inspired designs aren’t just pretty little porcelain centerpieces; her new dinnerware line is made to weather the household storm of kids, in-laws, dishwashers, and microwaves. Her dishes will lighten up a dinner party of ten or liven up breakfast for one.
