2007 Best Tableware

Bliss

No store in the city offers a more fine-tuned assortment of china, glassware, and flatware than Bliss. While this Newbury Street boutique may be quite a bit smaller than a department store, owner Panamai Manadee’s unerring good taste ensures that the carefully curated stock never wants for quality: Everything that Bliss carries—dramatic Juliska tumblers and intricately detailed Berry & Thread ceramics, delicate crystal from Cristal Saint-Louis—is so exquisite, you’ll want to snap it up.
