China & Stemware Storage Solutions

How to Keep Your China, Stemware and Other Tableware Safe and Clean

By Mariette Mifflin, About.com

Fine china, stemware and holiday dishes are wonderful to own, but after the special dinners, safely storing this fine tableware in an already-congested kitchen cabinet or buffet can result in chips and cracks to your cherished pieces.

Wrapping them in newsprint and storing them in a cardboard box is certainly a storage option, but retrieving them requires unpacking the full contents to reach those desired pieces and washing newsprint ink from your fine china. A better solution for safe clean storage for fine china and stemware is quilted or padded storage cases with protective dividers and tight closures.
