Celebrate with Silver: Bring in the New Year with These Must-Haves
The new year represents new beginnings and a fresh chapter for the adventures ahead. As we excitedly look forward to the coming year, put your best foot forward by having the following must-have silver pieces ready to give any celebration or quiet moment at home a luxurious upgrade.
Celebratory Drinkware
The Moscow Mule has been a permanent part of the cocktail scene since 1941. It came to life in an era of American fortitude during World War II and the Great Depression.
Jack Morgan, owner of the legendary Cock ‘n’ Bull bar in Los Angeles, was having trouble moving a massive shipment of ginger beer and vodka. Since both weren’t popular at that time, a Moscow mule mug was able to seal the deal with consumers, and the Moscow Mule was born.
Mint Juleps are another great wintertime beverage that can help you kick off the new year. Mint julep cups are the finishing touch needed to bring this sweet yet deep and refreshing drink to life.
And, to celebrate all of life’s exciting moments this year, toasting flutes are the perfect vessel for a champagne toast.
Set the Scene with Silver
If you plan on hosting in your home this year, then a polished table setting is an absolute must. A candlelit backdrop outfitted with silver candle holders adds excitement to small gatherings and will make any event truly special.
Revere bowls will complete your decor and are perfect for serving snacks, party punch, and beyond. First made famous by this early American silversmith, the Revere bowl has long-standing popularity and continues to be a favorite, given its exceptional versatility and elegant design.
Then, when it comes to the table setting, the Wallace Grande Baroque sterling silverware set is a stunning showstopper. Designed with an opulent Baroque style, this silverware set has been gracing dining room tables since 1941 and is known for its impressive durability, intricate detailing, and mirror-like shine.
