Nautica Dinnerware
Nautica Dinnerware is distributed by Nautica Home which is a leading global brand of lifestyle products. I personally love the dinnerware patterns. I feel that they are practical and well-fitting for nautical dinnerware.
Nautica dinnerware sets are a great way to make every mealtime feel like something special.

Some of their patterns are solid or two-tone colors which are great for coordinating with other décor. These patterns include:
- Arctic Night
- Arctic White
- Bali Linen
- Bali Mocha
- Sloan Square Banded
- Sloan Square Floral
Many of these may be discontinued, which will make finding a full set a little more of a challenge. However, it's possible if you look wherever vintage and antique or other discontinued dinnerware is sold. Replacements.com is a good start. I've also found pieces on eBay and Etsy before, too.
More Discontinued Nautical Sets
Here are some other sets that may be out of distribution but you can usually still find them when you look at your favorite sites and shops for vintage dinnerware.
I am particularly fond of the J-Class collection which I would recommend for people looking for navy dinnerware for a US Navy family. Traditional red, white and blue means a lot to me because a lot of my friends and family served in the military.
The On-Deck White dinnerware set is also nice if you prefer primary colors. I really think it is cute and fashionable.
For a more subtle and distinct look, you might find the Grover Beach dinnerware pattern to be appealing. The Bali Floral Linen pattern is also nice.
In my opinion, these choices make it possible for you to find dinnerware that is complementary to any type of nautical décor. It would be great for a beach house, a lake house, or a home with the ambiance of an all-time vacation.
