I'm Bringing Heritage Design To My Thanksgiving Table with this Dinnerware Collection – They Feel Like Future Heirlooms

Morris & Co tablescape with botanical plates, table runner and serving platter.

I'm hosting my first Thanksgiving this year, and I'm set on bringing classic, heritage style to the table as my grandmother used to she's always been a master of Thanksgiving table decor ideas. And the Williams Sonoma x Morris & Co Essex collection offers exactly the kind of look that I've been envisioning, and they'll really elevate the family hand-me-downs that I have stowed away in my hosting closet.

Boasting William Morris' signature botanical prints, the collection brings classic British design to the table; think country grandmother-inspired tableware with a dash of heritage charm. If, like me, your Thanksgiving table setting ideas are rooted in nostalgia, the Williams Sonoma x Morris & Co Essex Collection could be your next obsession.

Vintage prints are making a comeback, and nostalgic decorating trends like chintz and florals are in the spotlight once again. With all of this in mind, I'd say that the Williams Sonoma x Morris & Co Essex Collection has arrived at the perfect time.

From the bold Essex appetizer plates to the harvest-themed Elmcote napkins, the Williams Sonoma range abounds with Arts and Crafts-inspired designs that will elevate any fall table. I can't wait to show off these pieces to my guests at Thanksgiving; I know that even my grandmother would approve.

Alongside these stunning Morris & Co pieces, I've got my eye on the vintage-inspired Magnolia holiday decor collection for 2025. From fall table decor ideas right through to Christmas, I can always count on heritage dinnerware to elevate the occasion.
