My Favorite Glass, Stoneware + Ceramic TABLEWARE SETS

Updated: May 25, 2023


Let me start by saying that with a few exceptions, glass is the safest material for items that come in contact with food.

Unlike ceramics & clay, glass normally does not leach lead, cadmium & other heavy metals. Unlike plastic, it does not leach hormone-disrupting chemicals. So, I personally only use glass food storage, glass cookware & glass tableware in my kitchen.

CORELLE

Vitrelle Glass


Corelle plates and bowls are made in the USA with Vitrelle® glass. Vitrelle® glass is a type of tempered glass, which has three layers of glass. This construction makes glass very durable, chip & break-resistant.

On the other hand, watch out for Corelle brand ceramic mugs. The material for mugs is not glass – it’s stoneware. On top of that, China is the manufacturing location for the Corelle mugs. If you do purchase a Corelle set, I suggest purchasing without the mugs. Instead, see the drinkware I suggest below.

Plain glass with no color or paintings on it is one of the safest options for glass dinnerware and glass cookware. Below is a dinnerware set by Corelle (a reputable brand) made with vitrelle glass. This is the set that we have:

DURALEX

Tempered Glass


Duralex is a French brand that produces tableware and kitchenware from tempered glass. In this technique, the molded glass is heated to 1,112 degrees Fahrenheit and then cooled very quickly. This process gives it an impact resistance twice superior to normal glass. My recommendations are Duralex glass bowls, dinner plates, and dessert plates, which I have linked below.

BALL

Lead Free Glass Drinkware


We have been using Ball mason jars both as drinking glasses & as storage containers for years now. Tamara Rubin of Lead Safe America tested mason jars & found that the Ball brand mason jars were consistently the least likely to contain lead. Avoid colored ones as they tested positive for lead.

We use these Ball Pint-sized Mason Jars below as drinking glasses & glass food storage. I store homemade tomato sauce & soup in these Ball jars. They are the perfect way to storage food as they don't take up a lot of space like tupperware bowls etc.



BALL
20 Regular Mouth Mason Jars
16 oz. Pint
(glass with lids + bands)
$53.99 (approx)

Make sure you wash and wipe the lids to avoid rusting but do not put them in the dishwasher. And do not let food or liquid touch the lids as they may contain BPA or other bisphenol chemicals.



DURALEX

Lead Free Glass Drinkware


Duralex glasses are my favorites as well. Made in France, they are sturdy, yet they have a chic look.



DURALEX
"PICARDIE" COLLECTION
CLEAR TEMPERED GLASS
18 PIECE DRINKWARE + TUMBLER CUP SET = $99.99 (approx)
(perfect for wine, tea, water & cocktails)








DURALEX
"PRISME" COLLECTION
CLEAR GLASS
SET OF 6 TUMBLERS =
