Who would have thought that flatware could be sexy? The Iittala Mango Flatware was originally designed by Nancy Still back in 1971, but as all trends eventually come around again, it isn't surprising to see it popping up again now. Made of matte brushed 18/10 stainless steel, each piece has a sinuous elegance to it and would word well at both formal and casual dinners. The set is made in Finland. Price: $70 per 5-piece set.

For some reason, specialty Thanksgiving platters and serveware tend to be rather cheesy, with little pictures of pilgrims or cornucopias adorning them in the worst examples and an overly rustic look on the slightly more stylish side of things. Thankfully, there are at least a few good-looking serving implements out there, like these Chromed Turkey Lifters, which are simple, functional and attractive. They are made out of chrome-plated zinc and measure 4"x9.5". They will give you the support needed to lift even heavy turkey from the roasting plan to a serving platter, then can also be used to serve the individual slices to guests. Price: $18.
