Celebrating the 10th anniversary of davistudio, porcelain tabletop artist Mary Anne Davis has launched HueChoose, a premium service that offers custom color dinnerware for clients looking to truly personalize their tablescape. Using paint or fabric swatches, davistudio is able to create a line of one-of-a-kind coordinated plates, bowls, serving platters, cups, saucers, and mugs.

"Choosing your style and color of dinnerware is an intimate commitment," Davis comments. "It's an investment in design and utility that you live with each day. That's why tabletop pieces should be exactly what a person wants - not just what's available. By collaborating with clients, I can create dishes that are uniquely their own."

HueChoose special orders carry the same per-item pricing as davistudio's existing tabletop pieces, but require a $250 service fee and a minimum order of eight 4-piece place settings or $1800 worth of product. davistudio offers 24 different shapes and sizes of tabletop items ranging from a 6-inch saucer to a 23-inch oval platter. All designs are produced and packaged with a commitment to environmental sensitivity; Davis is engaged in an ongoing effort to sustain and advance green work practices.

“I have twelve place settings comprised of four different colors... Some are existing colors from Mary Anne's line, and others she created based on my needs. I use them all the time... for everyday meals and special dinner parties because they're vivid and cheerful. I also really appreciate how each one is slightly different and doesn't look or feel mass-produced.”
