Do You Use Your China?

When I got married in 1987 we picked Wedgewood Amherst as our pattern, and I still have 10-12 place settings of that. I do like it, and think it’s pretty simple, but the platinum rim makes me not put it in the dishwasher.

BUT, maybe 10 years ago a friend of mine’s daughter picked Denby Azure Coast as her “nice dishes” (they didn’t want china), and I loved it so much I wound up buying her a couple of places settings, and us 12. I still love it, and it fits with our lifestyle more than the china. I find myself using it just as much as the china when I set a “fancy table” https://www.denbypottery.com/en-us/collections/azure-coast?srsltid=AfmBOooZEiWgtNOkSj0R2sdKNomdR9ixvs6iV7PmqwXjRnk4cAzRZDEK
