Sweese Small Plates – Shop The Look

I recently stumbled upon these stunning plates by Sweese on Amazon. I just couldn’t resist the arctic blue ring design on the plate’s circumference. I thought the intricate design resembled the iris of an eye. I think this is what drew me in. The plates were unique, not like anything I’ve ever seen before.

I placed my order on Amazon but was a little leery about what the plates would look like in real life. I’ve been burned before with online purchases, but luckily there were free returns.

Once I received the plates, I loved them even more. I thought the pictures did not do them justice. The quality, unique shape, beautiful design and durability pleased me. They are curved so they stack nicely. In addition, the plates are scratch resistant and both dishwasher and microwave safe. All making these Sweese plates a great addition to your home.

The style of the plates is more on the contemporary side, so I was a little apprehensive on how they would mix with my traditional and vintage table settings. But once I started mixing these beauties with some of my vintage pieces, all my worries went away. French Limoges and Sweese became a match made in heaven! Although more modern looking, these plates are transitional because they pair well with all styles.

If you are in the market for new dishes or simply want to add some uniqueness to home entertaining these beautiful plates are worth checking out. I used them in various ways. Below are some ideas and visuals to pique your interest:

*For Snacks and Appetizers: These plates are on the smaller side, 7.8 inches wide, so they are ideal to use for snacks, small plates and appetizers. The width and curvature offer adequate room to include dips and other condiments making them extremely practical for entertaining. The shape really allows you to be creative with how you plate different foods.

*For Salads or Side Dishes: Like I mentioned above, each dish is 7.8 inches wide, so smaller than a typical dinner plate, but slightly larger. Because of that they can fit a fair amount of food on them, so they are perfect to use as salad plates or for side dishes. Their shape and sturdiness provide optional support for various food items. The curved design is aesthetically pleasing but works wonders to keep dressings and such on the plate. No more spills!

*For Desserts: The plates work wonderfully for desserts. I used them for a cupcake and coffee buffet, and they worked like a charm! The awesome thing about them is they could be doubled as a saucer and dessert plate at the same time as shown below. Why not have cake with your coffee! The curved shape really allows you to be creative with how you do your plating for various events.

The plates possess an unparalleled beauty and can be mixed with all sorts of styles. They would be a wonderful complement to your home’s entertaining pieces or a great housewarming gift for a loved one.
