Serving platters and sets from India for entertaining

Serving platters and sets from India are made for the moments when people gather: long wooden platters for sharing boards, brass thalis for festive meals, marble cheese boards, chip and dip sets and tiered cake stands. They are pieces people bring out with pride, which is why they work so well for gifting and premium retail.

If you already know the occasion you are designing for, a Sunday brunch, a wedding buffet or a holiday gift box, tell us and we will point you to the right makers. If you are exploring, the guide below shows what India does best.

What we offer in serving sets and platters

Wooden platters and boards

Acacia and mango wood platters and boards are cut and finished by hand, sometimes with brass inlay, resin edges or carved handles. They are the most popular piece for sharing food and grazing boards.

Brass and copper thalis and sets

Moradabad artisans make traditional thalis with matching bowls and tumblers, as well as modern serving sets in hammered brass and copper. Food-contact pieces are lined or coated where needed.

Marble and stone boards

Marble cheese boards, some combined with wood or inlay, are elegant, heavy and cool to the touch, ideal for cheese and desserts.

Ceramic sets and cake stands

Stoneware chip and dip sets, platters and tiered cake stands come from Khurja and other pottery clusters, glazed to match our plates and bowls.

Combining crafts

Some of the most beautiful pieces combine two crafts: wood with brass inlay, marble with wood, ceramic with a brass stand. These hybrids sell well in gift and premium stores. We coordinate between workshops so each component fits and finishes match.

Food safety

We will always tell you which surfaces are made for direct food contact. Wood uses food-safe finishes, ceramics use lead-free glazes, and brass for food is lined or tin-coated. Decorative pieces are labelled clearly.

Gift sets and packaging

Serving sets are natural gifts, so packaging matters. We can pack sets in printed boxes or cloth bags with your branding, and build seasonal bundles with coasters, napkins or a table runner.

Minimum quantities

Minimums are per design. Mixed orders across platters, boards and sets are common for a first order.

Packing and shipping

Wood is protected against moisture, ceramics travel in cell cartons, and heavy marble pieces are boxed individually. We ship by sea or air and quote ex-factory, FOB, CFR or CIF.
