Selene

Bring a whisper of understated sophistication to your daily meals with the Selene collection. In these pieces, traditional Japanese-inspired beauty meets contemporary form in a collection of blue and white dinnerware that is retro in attitude and perfect for contemporary life. Each is a calm tableau on which to serve your meal, elevating every meal—you know, a Tuesday breakfast or a Saturday evening dinner party with friends—to something special.

The Art of the Everyday: The Selene Story

The Selene collection is a call to discover beauty in everyday rituals. Our design is a result of deep affection for Japanese aesthetics, whereby indigo blue depicts peace and profundity. We reinterpreted traditional floral vine patterns to adapt to modern homes.

A central feature of Selene is the artful variation in its patterns. This intentional design choice means that every bowl, plate, and platter has its own unique character, much like handcrafted pottery. This turns your collection into a personal gallery of functional art. For those looking to make a bolder statement, the Selene 16 Piece Vibrant Dinnerware Set offers a striking palette of indigo, sun-drenched yellow, and sophisticated black. This intentional mix-and-match aesthetic ensures your porcelain dinnerware set is a one-of-a-kind assortment that is truly yours.

Designed for Your Life: Beauty Meets Practicality

While beautiful, the Selene collection is crafted to withstand the rigors of daily use. This is elegant tableware made for real life.

A Perfect Blend of Materials

We selected two very different materials with care to give you the best of both worlds. The plates, bowls, and serving pieces are crafted of premium porcelain, a material famous for its exceptional strength and light weight. Baked at high temperatures, porcelain is non-porous and chip-resistant with a shiny glaze that is effortless to clean. For an early morning coffee or a late evening tea, the collection offers durable porcelain mugs.

Designed for Practical Versatility

The Selene collection offers practical flexibility for your home. Start with a core set and expand your kitchen's capabilities as your family grows or your hosting needs change. For instance, you can effortlessly supplement your daily routine with the Selene Cereal Bowls Set Of 4 for morning oats, ramen, or acai. To maximize your kitchen efficiency, the highly versatile Selene Food Storage Bowls Set Of 2 perfectly transitions from serving fresh salads on the dining table to keeping meal-prep leftovers fresh in the fridge. This approach moves beyond the limitations of uniform dinnerware sets, giving you a durable and adaptable collection that evolves with you.

Convenience for the Modern Household

Your tableware should simplify your life, not complicate it. Every piece in the Selene collection is completely safe for use in the microwave for quick heating and the oven for keeping dishes warm. When the meal is over, cleanup is simple, as the entire collection is dishwasher safe.

FAQs About the Selene Collection

Q: Is This Dinnerware Durable Enough for a Family with Children?

A: Indeed, yes. The Selene line is designed for daily living. The porcelain is fired at high temperature, producing a strong, dense body that is almost resistant to chipping and scratching. It possesses the perfect balance of beauty and durability, so such chip-resistant tableware can be enjoyed by the entire family.

Q: Will the Blue Patterns Disappear After Numerous Washes in the Dishwasher?

A: The beautiful indigo patterns won't fade. The pattern is printed before the final glaze firing, setting it in place for good under a safe, non-porous seal. This makes the entire collection entirely dishwasher safe, and the colors will be as vibrant as the day you bought them.

Q: Will This Collection Be Suitable for Everyday Meals as Well as Formal Dinners?

A: Yes, and one of the best aspects of it is that it can be used in any situation. The nice pattern and fine china are dressy enough for a fancy dinner party, but their toughness and convenience in the dishwasher make them perfect for a plain weeknight meal. It's designed to accommodate every sort of dinner situation.

Q: Can Porcelain Be Microwaved?

A: Yes. All porcelain items in the Selene line are safe for microwave use, and it is easy to reheat leftovers or heat food directly from the microwave onto the plate.

Q: How Do I Care for and Store My Selene Dinnerware?

A: It is easy to take care of your Selene dinnerware. The whole range is dishwasher safe to make cleanup easy. To avoid any likely scratching of the glazed surfaces in the long run, you can put a soft cloth or a felt divider between each plate, particularly for those that you keep stored for longer periods.

Q: Does Porcelain Retain Heat Well for Hot Beverages Like Coffee and Tea?

A: Yes, high-quality porcelain is an excellent insulator. Because it is fired at extremely high temperatures, it becomes dense and non-porous, which naturally helps retain the temperature of your drinks. For example, serving your morning latte or evening herbal tea in the generously sized Selene Mugs Set Of 4 ensures your beverage stays warm longer.
