The ceremony of unpacking your favorite tried-and-true crystal and china is a cherished part of holiday tradition, and sometimes adding a few new pieces to your collection is just the thing to take your entertaining to the next level. Here are some fresh ideas in festive gold and metallic hues designed to wow this season.

Handmade in Slovenia using a glassblowing process, this original design allows two wines to decant at the same time. While meant for a vintage, the decorative piece is also lovely when filled with water or another beverage.
