Details of Exquisite Waterford Serving Pieces

An elegantly iced cake, a fresh fruit platter, a mix of gourmet chocolates: all exquisite and delectable. But when you are looking to wow your dinner guests, the right serving platter makes all the difference. And, nothing makes an impressive presentation like a Waterford Crystal serving piece. With Waterford's classic creations, you can collect a piece for every course and every dish, so let the feast begin.

Let’s begin with the first course, appetizers. When you want to make a fabulous first impression, choose a Waterford Crystal piece that sets the stage for a memorable meal. The Evolution by Waterford Crystal Pearl Moon Drop Platter is one of Waterford's most modern designs and looks more like a piece of architecture than dinnerware. With bold stripes circulating around the platter, this dish casts a dramatic shadow and makes a sleek impression. The Grafton Street by Waterford Crystal "O'Connell" Rectangular Tray offers a completely different look, with ornamental filigree patterns and a gorgeous radiating star-cut pattern. The two section tray offers great flexibility for serving appetizers or finger foods.

Next comes the salad course, and Waterford has some truly spectacular salad bowls to present to your guests. Take for instance the Waterford Crystal Lismore ten-inch salad bowl. This deep-set salad bowl is a true classic, but don't think this bowl is just reserved for greens. Because of its linear shape, you can use it for everything from displaying fruit to filling it with floating candles. The intricate Lismore pattern will work perfectly with a host of dinnerware designs, or combine it with other Waterford pieces for a dynamic look.

There's also the Waterford Crystal nine-inched flared bowl, which offers a more traditional angled salad serving design along with carvings that resemble the decorative features of the classic pineapple motif. And of course you're going to need matching salad serving utensils to go with any of these gorgeous bowls. Luckily, Waterford makes a matching crystal "Lismore" Salad Servers Set that perfectly complements the bowl.

For the main course, Waterford has a complete selection of table accessories to create a lavish setting, right down to the smallest detail. Take for instance the Marquis by Waterford Crystal Canterbury Salt and Pepper Shaker Set. Priced for any budget, this pair will match any of the Waterford patterns with its neutral style, but it still boasts Waterford's famous rosette and blaze cuts. There's also the Marquis by Waterford Crystal Canterbury footed sauce boat, which is perfect for gravy, hollandaise or whatever your cuisine calls for.

Finally, it's time for dessert. And no one does cake plates and pedestals like Waterford. Glistening with detailed cuts and engravings, these plates will make any scrumptious sweet into a show-stopping finale. The Waterford Crystal Lismore Footed Cake Plate is just one of numerous styles of dessert plates offered by Waterford. This piece features a radiating cut pattern on the plate along with a glittering pedestal, making it ideal for any style dessert.

But there are other styles as well, such as the Grafton Street by Waterford Crystal Bolton Cake Plate. Without a pedestal, this plate offers a different look and can work with more casual affairs as well as grand banquets. Here, Waterford uses carvings in a more reserved manner, with a dramatic starburst center followed by a smooth interior and completed with carvings inspired by Georgian-style columns and arches. Waterford cake plates not only fit in perfectly at the end of a meal, but they’re also ideal for brunch pastries, muffins and scones, as well as to display breads during dinner.

But there are other Waterford pieces that can be used anytime, not just when you are hosting a fancy dinner party. The Evolution by Waterford Crystal Peridot Whisper Square Vase is a unique departure for Waterford. An ultra-modern look is created thanks to the blending of green and yellow hues swirling through this square vase.

The Marquis by Waterford Crystal Origin Covered Bowl is the perfect place to store sweet treats or mints, while the Evolution by Waterford Crystal Caspian Sea Bowl is a fresh choice for decorative ornaments or fruit. This last piece is a particularly splendid piece of crystal artistry. Made in Poland, it is one piece that unmistakably imitates the flow of water, through the use of a crystal blue shade and graceful flowing curves.

To create a memorable dinner party, it's obvious to see where Waterford Crystal can play a leading role. It's immediate eye-catching appeal and reputation for luxury makes Waterford the name to depend on when it comes to wowing guests. But investing in a few pieces of Waterford is not only the perfect springboard for some truly unforgettable dinner parties — it’s also a wise collecting move that future generations can enjoy for years to come. With some many different pieces to choose from, there's a Waterford creation for every budget and every meal.
