How Do You Style Glassware?

[Baxer]

Hello all! I’ve always had trouble figuring out how to style glassware on the table. Do you mix different patterns and shapes, or is it better to stick with one collection? What’s the trick to making glassware part of the overall dining design?

Glassware can be styled as a highlight or as a complement, depending on the look you want. Mixing can work when there’s a shared theme, such as cut crystal patterns or a consistent color palette. Still, sticking with a refined collection often creates more cohesion. Brands like Artel specialize in handcrafted crystal that feels like jewelry for the table. A matching set of their glasses can transform even a simple meal into a refined experience, while mixing them with understated porcelain keeps balance. Placement also matters—arranging glassware at consistent heights adds order and elegance.
