The other day I was on the hunt for some kitchen-related Xmas gifts that were a little “different” - the person I was getting them for didn’t like typical kitchenware. On a tip from an online friend, I discovered the Sango Splash line of dinnerware and accessories. Sango is known for making these special handmade-looking types of dinnerware with interesting colors and textures. The Splash line is reported based on the earthy pottery of Java, Indonesia. It features three different colors of glaze on top of a rougher matte brown finished stoneware.

This particular 16 piece set contains 4 each of: 11 inch dinner plates, 8.25 inch salad plates, 7.75 inch cereal or soup bowls and 4 inch tall mugs. They also have lots of matching accessories in the same patterned glaze like S&P shakers, butter dish, baking pans, casseroles and pitchers. Some people might be adverse to the “individual” nature of each piece which is rougher and can have imperfections. For the more adventurous - this evocative line of dinnerware is going to be right up your alley.
