Oneida is one of the world’s most recognized names in tabletop. Gracing tables for over 100 years, Onieda has been a staple in homes, fine dining establishments, family restaurants and hotels for decades.. The company originated in a utopian community established in 1848 by John Humphrey Noyes, and has had a strong reputation for quality since that time. Today, Oneida products include a broad range of products including the finest quality flatware, porcelain dinnerware, stainless steel and silverplate holloware. Through licensed partners, the brand is also represented on cookware, bakeware and kitchen gadgets.
Buffalo Pottery’s history began in 1903 when the Larkin Soap Company of Buffalo, New York began making pottery and china to offer customers as premiums when they purchased soap products by mail order or through select retail outlets. In the 1980’s, Buffalo china was recognized as one of the largest suppliers of commercial dinnerware in the United States. Today, with unequaled durability, practicality and detail, the Buffalo Collection’s casual, popular-priced dinnerware delivers function and flair to your tabletop.
