Tastefully designed

Sparkling crystal and glass, fine china, classy table linen and a vase of freshly bloomed flowers... that's a classy way to dine. And that's what Currimbhoys Enterprises with the House of Sonaba, specialise in... elegant and unique whiteware.

Beautiful crockery in graceful self-embossed whites, some edged with gold, cobalt blue, red or green, and in eye-catching colours such as pink, yellow, blue and green... each piece spells elegance. The items are sourced from all over the world — Noritake from Japan, Dankotuwa porcelain from Sri Lanka, Pieces from Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia. There are 40 different designs to choose from. Glassware from Liberty, U.S., as well as from well-known makers in Europe, are a good buy.

A stunning range of chandeliers from Bohemia and elsewhere, in crystal and cut glass, lends a dramatic touch.

There are three outlets in the city. While the ones on Harrignton Road and North Boag road are retail outlets, the one at Anna Nagar is a wholesale depot, where stainless steel utensils too are sold.

Exclusive stocks from Yamini's of Mumbai — table linen, cushion covers, curtain material, dhurries, bedcovers — exude charm. Silver artefacts from Jaipur, furniture from France, are among the other items on display at the Harrington Road outlet.

What is tempting is that you can mix and match your crockery — one cup from one set with a plate from another. Isn't it time to revamp your kitchen?
