We love weddings and know they take lots of organising so we
want to give you a helping hand on your big day. The dinner
service is top of the gift list so now is the time to upgrade your set.
We have put together this handy little guide to give you an idea of
what tableware you’ll need when you tie-the-knot.
We’re really proud that couples have been choosing Denby for
years and we think it’s down to the way Denby is designed and
crafted – it’s beautiful enough for your dinner parties but tough
enough to be used and enjoyed everyday.
Another nice thing about choosing Denby tableware is our ‘Denby
For Life Promise’ which we think (even if we do say so ourselves)
is a rather good service. Full details can be found on page 14-15
along with a huge plate of seafood spaghetti.
Warning: Brochure contains photos of irresistible food which could cause serious stomach rumbles.
Visit www.denbybrides.co.uk for an online guide to all Denby ranges.
Quality and durability.
We have been making pottery at Denby for almost 200 years and
owe much of our present success to the skills of earlier generations of
craftsmen. Importantly, Denby has not lost sight of the reasons for
its popularity as generations have grown to expect leading designs
combined with a tradition of quality that lasts and lasts.
Style and design.
Denby has oodles of tableware to choose from in contemporary and
traditional styles and shapes, making it great for all occasions, whether
it’s dinner with the in-laws or Friday nights in front of the TV. This is
because Denby is designed with real food and real people in mind.
With such a wide choice of colours, patterns and unique glazes you
can create the perfect match for you and your home. It’s no wonder
that Denby is a popular choice with brides-to-be.

Proud to announce.
Denby is smashing stuff, our tableware
is much harder to crack than other
tableware. That’s because we’ve
perfected our 5000 glazes to be
harder than steel. Great for parties,
not so good for Greek weddings.
Azure Coast p33
We like tests (just not maths
ones). We test all our tableware
in ovens, microwaves, dishwashers
and freezers again and again. We
even make sure everything passes
test number 154 (that’s the ‘nice
and comfy to hold’ test).
www.denbybrides.co.uk
Our handmade glassware is beautifully elegant,
but also made with the toughness you’d expect
from Denby. So if there happens to be a little
too much celebrating going on, you can be
sure it’ll withstand a few knocks and bumps.

Everyone loves Champa

our
champagne flutes extra

something to celebrate
then you

Simple contemporary styling with
discerning details which makes
whatever you serve look stunning.

China that lasts (and las
ts).
China by Denby has all
the
elegance of china, but wit
h the
toughness of Denby. You
can use
it everyday (for when frie
nds come
round) but also for specia
l stuff
(for when the in-laws com
e round).

Choosing your tableware can be pretty tricky, with all kinds of styles, colours and
materials available. We’ve given you a helping hand with our ‘guide to choosing’ and
are proud to tell you that every piece of Denby is dishwasher safe, microwave safe,
oven safe* and freezer safe. Being tough stuff, we’re pretty certain it’s absent-minded
husband safe too.

products at the back

*China by Denby (p31) is safe to heat in an oven gradually to 100ºC, but not above this temperature.
All of our other ranges can be used confidently in the oven as high as you like.
Why do our saucers have
room for biscuits? Do we
really need to spell it out?
Because a life without
biscuits isn’t worth living.
China by Denby p31
Stoneware clay is very strong. It is fully vitrified (which means the surface is made
glassy and non-porous) this gives it strength, durability and chip resistance. In fact
Denby stoneware is so strong that four upturned mugs can withold the weight of a
double decker bus (wowser). Denby stoneware is unique because we have over 5000
beautiful glazes, each one with its very own secret recipe.
Similar in strength to stoneware, porcelain has a more translucent body and is
naturally a lovely blue-white colour. Our stunning porcelain ranges (White by Denby,
White Trace, White Squares and Serve) are beautifully simple, very stylish and make
any food look fantastic.
Bone china has a pure white translucency and is also fully vitrified, which makes it
as tough as our stoneware in terms of strength, durability and chip resistance. Bone
china doesn’t have to conjure up visions of your Granny’s dusty dresser. Our China
by Denby range with sleek contemporary shapes and gourmet items (such as noodle
bowls and extra large plates and pasta bowls) brings china bang up to date.
Earthenware clay has a porous ceramic body so is less strong and less tough than
other materials. Denby don’t do earthenware.

Denby means cleaner carpets (honestly).
Our plates have this amazing device known as a
‘gravy/custard/soup rim’. It helps hold sauces
onto the plate instead of spilling on to that
lovely skirt you’ve just bought.

Catch up on wedding plans and
indulge in a seriously lazy lunch.
Good cooking is about what
feels right. It isn’t about
measuring the life out of
your ingredients. Denby
tableware is made for real
food, not just for show.

Serve is a range of tableware
that’s not just designed for tables.
It’s made for passing around, sharing
and because it’s made from extra-tough
porcelain, throwing in the air when we
win The Eurovision Song Contest.
Gourmet is available in all our
favourite ranges. Some of our most
popular ranges now feature ‘Gourmet’
pieces, they are extra large for dramatic
effect. Use them as presentation plates,
for decorative food or massive hungry
husband portions.

Oooooh fancy that.
Our bowls are amazingly versatile,
not only can they be used for olives, but also
for peanuts, carrot sticks or cheesy puffs
(if it’s that kind of a ‘do’).

Well I never.
Our glass tumblers can be
used for other things besides drinks,
like puddings, cheese straws and carrot
sticks. Just not all at the same time
because that would be strange.

Say Cheese.
Like cheese? Start a cheese club. Ask
your guests to bring round a random
flavour cheese. Serve up on a Denby
plate, then pick the winner. Denby is
made for real food not just for show.

We were married in late November during a flurry of
snowflakes. It was a fabulous wedding, followed by a
wonderful honeymoon in Cadgwith, Cornwall. We were
supposed to be leaving on the Sunday, but looking at
the skies on the Friday morning we decided to leave
a bit earlier to avoid any bad weather. We made it as
far as Truro, and then came to a stand-still, snow was
falling thick and fast and we, amongst many other
motorists, were stranded in the snow. We resigned
ourselves to a night in the car. As we turned the
heaters up, we noticed a fish and chip shop across the
road, so my new husband rushed out and got us our
dinner. As he came back instead of getting into the
car he headed to the boot and after a bit of rummaging
around he came back into the car with two Denby
plates and mugs, wedding presents from a friend. So
we ate our fish and chip supper off our new plates and
drank the bubbly from the mugs, how romantic.

Denby lasts for a long time, so consider what is right for your
personal style and feel free to mix and match our ranges.
Think about the number of place settings you might need,
don’t forget serving pieces, glassware, accessories and the
matching teapot.
Make use of the tableware checklist we’ve put together for
you (see p17), tick off all the pieces you’d like in the range
and the number of each required. Take it with you to make
life easier when creating your gift list.
And most importantly...
Try putting cheese in your soup, it tastes pretty good.
