White Ceramic Dinner Set, 12-Piece

Twelve pieces of plain white ceramic for four people — three per place.

Plain white is not the absence of a decision. It is the one finish that never dates, never clashes with a tablecloth or a centrepiece, and can be added to from any shop in five years' time when something breaks. A patterned set has to be replaced as a set.

It is also the right choice if the food is the point. Colour on a plate competes with what is served on it, which is why almost every restaurant that cares about presentation serves on white.

Three pieces per place covers a seated meal. Pair it with mugs bought separately if you want breakfast covered too, which is easy to do precisely because the set is white. It takes the dishwasher and the microwave, so nothing about owning it requires special handling.
