How to Choose the Right Tableware?
Selecting the right tableware set depends on your personal style, the occasions you typically host, and the number of guests you serve. Consider durable materials like porcelain or stoneware for everyday use, and perhaps fine china or bone china for special occasions. Explore our tableware collections to find the set that best suits your lifestyle and aesthetic.

What types of cutlery do I need for my kitchen?
A basic cutlery set should include dinner knives, forks, spoons, and teaspoons. If you frequently entertain, you might also consider steak knives, serving spoons, and dessert forks. Our cutlery section offers an array of options from classic to contemporary designs.

What's the best way to clean and maintain my cutlery?
Quality cutlery should be hand-washed with warm soapy water and dried immediately to prevent spots and rust. Avoid using lemon-scented or chlorinated detergents. Stainless steel cutlery is dishwasher safe, but be sure to remove them shortly after the cycle is over and polish them with a soft cloth if necessary.

How should I store my cutlery to avoid scratches or damage?
Store your cutlery in a flatware tray or roll it in a cutlery cloth. Separate silverware from stainless steel to avoid corrosion.

What are the essential serving pieces every host should have?
A versatile serving platter, bowls of various sizes, a salad bowl, and serving utensils are basic essentials. For specific dishes or themes, you may want specialised items like a cheese board or dessert stand.

How do I choose servingware that compliments my table setting?
Match with your tableware's colour scheme and style. For eclectic settings, mix and match serving pieces, whereas coordinated collections work beautifully for formal settings.

How do I keep my glassware looking sparkling and clear?
Wash glassware by hand with warm, soapy water, and polish with a lint-free cloth. Dishwashers can cause cloudiness over time, so handwashing is preferred for delicate items.

How do I choose the right cocktail shaker?
Choosing the right cocktail shaker can set the tone for your mixology experience. At House, we offer several types of cocktail shakers to suit different preferences. The Boston shaker is a two-piece set ideal for professionals, while the cobbler shaker comes with a built-in strainer for convenience. Consider your level of expertise and personal style when selecting.

How do I select wine glasses that will cater to different types of wine?
The shape of a wine glass can affect the tasting experience. Red wines benefit from a larger bowl to allow the wine to breathe, while white wine glasses are typically narrower to preserve temperature and aroma. House offers a variety of wine glasses for different wine variants, ensuring you savour each sip as intended.

How do I properly clean and maintain my cocktail glasses?
After use, immediately rinse your cocktail glasses in warm water to prevent stains. Non-abrasive sponges and mild detergent should be used for cleaning. Avoid extreme temperature changes when washing to prevent cracks. Hand-drying with a soft cloth can add shine and prevent water spots.
