To many people, formal table settings are an art form, and table manners are not to be taken lightly. Did you know that the earliest Western dining traditions were documented by the Ancient Greeks?  Table-setting scenes are found in the Old Testament and in the writings of Homer!

From our Fair Trade Family to Yours - This Holiday Season, The Village Country Store is unveiling new festive fair trade dinnerware, tableware and home decor accessories!  

There’s no sign to find the small family-owned ceramic workshop in the state of Guanajuato. Behind the large wooden gate, women artisans are hand painting un-fired ceramics while men work the kilns, as they have since the late 70’s. Each piece has personality from the dots and swirls to the hand-painted logo on the bottom. And each is lead free, microwave and dishwasher safe. 

To view out entire collection of unique handcrafted tableware and ceramic dinnerware please visit our Tableware Collection - Tablecloths  - Hand Painted Candles and our delightful and enchanting Mexican Festive Dinnerware.
