What matters when shipping serving sets

Full sets are heavy and big, so shipping is charged on actual or volumetric weight, whichever is higher; ask for the final box size before paying.

Anti-breakage packing

Ask for the set to stay in its factory box with inserts, plus a layer of bubble wrap, a strong outer carton and a fragile mark, and a photo of the pieces on arrival at the warehouse before closing. Count the pieces, since large sets sometimes arrive in more than one box.

Piece count and what the set contains

A serving set varies in the number of pieces: cups, saucers, serving plates, nut dishes and sugar bowls. Read the list of pieces, not just the total, since a 24-piece set might have only six cups and the rest small plates, and make sure the number of guests suits your hosting.

Porcelain and gilded edges

Good porcelain is thin and hard and rings when tapped, while gilded rims suffer in a dishwasher or microwave. Read the care instructions and note that gilding should be washed by hand to keep its shine.

Breakage and how the set is wrapped

Each porcelain piece needs paper or bubble wrap, with plates standing on edge rather than stacked. Ask for photos before sealing if the set is costly, and open the parcel in front of a witness if needed to document any breakage.

Common questions

How is a porcelain set shipped from Turkey without breaking?

In its factory box with inserts, plus bubble wrap, a strong outer carton and a fragile mark, checked at the warehouse before closing.

Does the set stand daily hosting?

Fine sets are for occasions; for everyday use pick a thicker set without gold.

Should I buy a set for 12 or for 6?

Six is enough at home and twelve suits large occasions, but it adds weight and breakage risk.
