hmmm still waiting for replies..![]()
Re: Pakistani dinner sets
To be honest I haven't ever seen any large sets in any stores across the UK. If you are based in London, you could try visiting areas where there is a prominent desi community and lots of cash and carrys, in the hope that you may get lucky and find something there. Some cash and carrys do sell crockery that is shipped over from Pakistan, and you could also maybe try some Pakistani furniture shops?
By Pakistani style, do you mean plastic?
If we want a set we usually get it from pakistan when someone goes there and then it's brought back with them.
Re: Pakistani dinner sets
very very hard to find them in the UK … never seen an 80 piece set here ..:no:
Re: Pakistani dinner sets
^ you could do what I did and buy two or three of the same dinner set. Obviously you then end up with duplicates of the items you don't need especially if there is a tea set
Re: Pakistani dinner sets
no i dont need plastic sets ,,i need the glaas or china bone ones.i have seen some pakistani shops crockery here ,,but they are all old fashioned chamkeeli wale bertan. i have bought 2 sets of same dinner sets but i need some pakistani nice crockery with matching dishes for rice and bowls for salan ..i really miss pakistani crockery...:(
Re: Pakistani dinner sets
It's going to be a mission to find them in UK. I have not come across even a 50pc set but like Brit Chic said you could possibly buy 2 or 3 sets and combine them or you can buy each piece seperately and mix and match them.

Re: Pakistani dinner sets
What is "pakistani style" ?
Re: Pakistani dinner sets
You can buy two or more small sets of same design to make an 80 piece set of your choice. Why not ?
Re: Pakistani dinner sets
bingo... we cant seem to find any either.. max there is like 24 peice and the bad thing i sthat they dont have any serving bowl liek or salan or chawal
i live in canada, and last yr for my wedding my parents were looking for something similar...we found an amazing 99 piece set in fine china in a gift shop...it has things that i didnt even imagine come in a dinner set...
the dishes are so light weight and the design is exceptional...
so i guess you could try and search some gift shops or crystal shops...i cant speak much for uk but here in canada these stores certainly carry dinner sets
what gift shop and where its located in canada?
i am also now intrigued to see what exactly pakistani dinner set is. ![]()
zobia
wat is meant by that is that it has ur traditional plates (3 or 4 different kinds), bowls and all but it also has 2 different styles of serving bowls (for salan lets say) a big circular platter and then an oval platter (for rice)
in addition to that mine also had 12cup tea set (tea pot, sugar and milk jar incl.), a gravy boat, salt n pepper shaker
and these are just that things that i remember from the top of my head..
...im living in mississauga, and the shop is called Rawas China and Gifts (??)
Re: Pakistani dinner sets
i know shops in Birmingham that sell these, especially on Alum rock Road and Ladypool Road (can't remember names) these are pakistani run shops, if you can take a look in birmingham then you should find them i don't know about london.
other option is to get someone to buy in pakistan and have it sent over, but you risk breakages there.
Re: Pakistani dinner sets
So how many place settings is in an 80 pcs set?

TRy M Latif & Sons on Curzon Street, or there's 2 of the same warehouses next to M. Latif they are near the Digbeth end of curzon street if I recall correctly!
Otherwise there's a fancy goods store on Soho Road, halfway up opposite the library - can't remember name.
Alum rock - try Aziz Txtiles - the bigger newer one - they have a homewares section upstairs
Re: Pakistani dinner sets
thanks everyone for ur help i live in london but i definetly gonna look on alum rock road...
Re: Pakistani dinner sets
We purchased a large dinner service from this website www.eternityhome.co.uk They have some amazing Dinner sets. The delivery was also very quick by DHL few days after we ordered. Worth a look!
