Gold Porcelain Halloween Dinnerware

Post by Hasenbraten » Wed Oct 09, 2013 3:05 pm

I hope this is the right area to post - I just started up a small business that sells creepy (but fancy) dinnerware, like very ornate gold plates with skull designs. They are very high quality and look gorgeous, take a look if you still need dishes for your Halloween event! I will have more patterns soon (black/gold, pink/gold, aqua/gold, floral plates with skulls etc.)

Those are pretty cool plates! I think if I used them for Christmas the family might have a problem with it. I just need to convince them to have a fancy Halloween dinner!

Lol, yeah, my dad wasn't impressed. I want to do some Christmas ones as well, I am still in the process of designing stuff.

I think my wife would think they were cool looking, and she'd be a good sport with them around Halloween, but if her family was coming for Thanksgiving or Christmas, we'd have to go more traditional!

They are really cool though. Do you have your own kiln to do this?

I gotta think you'd get some good sales if you market to the goth community. Is there still a goth community? Those are really neat BTW.

Thanks guys! Yeah, I'll have to find my target audience. Fun and stressful at the same time:). I still want to get a kiln, right now I have to go to a local place to get them fired.

Yeah, Goth is good for the skull ones. I bet pumpkin ones would do well too. Maybe ghosts.

People would probably use them for decorations too...hmmmm....

I did check out your link, by the way.

They do look good, but my budget won't permit me to buy an entire set of dinnerware that I could basically use only once a year. Perhaps something with a pumpkin would sell better, simply because a person might use it at both Halloween and Thanksgiving, or throughout the autumn. Otherwise, I'd think the Goth community, as others have suggested; there might also be a clientele for specialty pieces, rather than an entire set of dishes.

That makes sense - a friendly pumpkin as one alternative. I think this is a pretty fun idea though!

I use mine year-round because I love them so hard! You don't need to hide them when it's not Halloween (and shouldn't:))!
Not sure about the pumpkins, lol, not quite as edgy:)

Are you able to produce the beetle in gold leaf instead of in color.

That would be cool.

I collect junk silver plate items. A lot of my time is spent with a cloth and silver polish.

If I can find a small enough photo file I'll post it.

I use the stuff though, they're not just to stare at. :shock:
