Designed to sit in between the placemat or tablecloth and the main dinner plate, a charger is meant to both enhance and protect your table as a barrier to spills and messes.

Why Porcelain?

Porcelain has long been considered durable, high-quality dinnerware due to its durability, heavy construction and break-resistant constitution. In many cases, porcelain is microwave- and dishwasher-safe, making for easy heating and cleanup. A less expensive alternative to bone china, porcelain is an easy choice for both formal or casual use.

Kinds of Porcelain Charger Plates

Choose from a two-toned, patterned or textured design within this curated collection of porcelain charger plates from Williams Sonoma. Many of these styles can also double as a serving platter for a versatile table pick. Here's just a quick lowdown of what's on offer right now:

• Two-toned. When you're looking for a certain color or complementary hue for your table, check out our Pickard color sheen line for an understated, classy look. Featuring colored rims in red, green or light blue, these beauties boast a white center that you can monogram for an extra-special touch.
• Patterned. Opt for a patterned charger when you're working with the seasons or just want to enhance more subdued dishes. Peruse our gorgeous butterfly or caribe Christian Lacroix plates, or go for a simple plaid that looks amazing within autumnal settings.
• Textured. Our textured designs feature embossed, ridged, basketweave or bamboo rims that provide the perfect sneak peek of texture when stacked with dishes. These charger plates come in pure white for an easy-pairing addition to any tablescape.
