Forty-eight pieces serving sixteen means sixteen plates and thirty-two napkins — one plate and two napkins per guest, which is the ratio a Christmas dinner actually consumes. Buying the pieces separately means guessing that ratio, and most people guess it wrong in the direction of too few napkins.
Nine-inch plates and 6.5-inch napkins are the standard party sizes, so nothing here is unusual except that it arrives matched. The Whimsical Winter print is snowflakes rather than Santas or ornaments, which means the set is usable at a New Year dinner and at a January party without looking like leftovers.
It is one of two matched plate-and-napkin kits on this shelf, and it exists for the reason kits exist everywhere: nobody wants to match a plate print to a napkin print at eleven at night on the twenty-third of December. The Let it Snow kit is the other, and it serves the same sixteen.
