Lifestyle brand Anthropologie has teamed up with one of New York’s most iconic institutions: The Metropolitan Museum of Art, for a dazzling 44-piece homeware collection. If luxury is the goal for your holiday season, what better pairing than The Met — a museum that attracts visitors from around the world for its treasured collection? While The Met’s offerings span the globe, this collaboration is inspired by its more domestic varieties: The American Wing, bringing the opulence of late 19th-century American design into our everyday lives.

The limited-edition collection takes its cues from Gilded Age artwork and is just as glamorous as one might hope. The lineup features intentionally over-the-top homeware for the perfect nightcap, with a focus on the tabletop: dinnerware, serveware, glassware, and barware — including a classic tea set, of course. Expect to see lustrous, sinuous curves mingling with pretty little things — think textiles, candles, and glittering decorative accents.

For anyone who swooned over the opulent world of The Gilded Age on HBO Max, this is exactly the kind of indulgent Americana you’ll want in your home. Thankfully, with prices ranging from $14 for a coaster to $148 for a tiered stand, we can all enjoy the finer things this season without a Vanderbilt-sized budget. After previewing the collection at Anthropologie’s Holiday House, I left with a few definitive favorites, which you can shop below. Or, wait for the Anthropologie sale to scoop up some breath-taking deals.


“Our collaboration with Anthropologie transports consumers to one of the most opulent eras in American design through an inspiring offering of tableware and home accents,” says Josh Romm, Head of Global Licensing and Partnerships at The Met. “We look forward to seeing how this collection will inspire conversations about art, design, and creativity during the holiday season and beyond.”
