As the summer season approaches, Australians look forward to sunny days and balmy evenings and the joy of entertaining friends and family.
And what better way to impress your guests than with a beautifully set table featuring stylish dinnerware?
For those who love a touch of nostalgia mixed with contemporary affordability, Kmart has just unveiled a range that's causing quite the stir among bargain hunters and style aficionados alike.
The 2-pack Green Cabbage Side Plates ($8) includes cabbage plates, bowls, and platters, is a delightful nod to the 80s classic Bordallo Pinheiro ceramics from Portugal.
These pieces, which can fetch prices up to $200, are known for their unique and charming cabbage motifs.
Kmart's version, however, offers the same vintage appeal without the hefty price tag, with items ranging from just $8 to $16.
Eliza Reid, a Victorian event manager and self-proclaimed bargain hunter, couldn't contain her excitement as she showcased the 'stunning' dining finds on her social media account.
'This might be throwing it back for a few people, but Kmart has now dropped some cabbage bowls, plates, and platters,' she said in the video.
'Obviously, they're a cheaper version of the fine china, but very cute, nonetheless.'
The collection features two mini bowls for $8, two green side plates for $8, a cabbage oval platter for $12, and a large cabbage bowl for $16.
Not only are these pieces 'elegant' and retro, but they are also practical, being both microwave and dishwasher-safe.
Nostalgic fans who remember the original 'cabbage ware' gracing their mothers' and grandmothers' tables are thrilled to find such a 'value for money' version.
'I am totally grabbing a couple of these even though I already have some Bordallo plates,' one shopper commented.
Another added, 'That cabbage bowl filled with a pile of bright fresh coleslaw or pasta salad would look amazing.'
It's worth noting that some shoppers have mentioned that The Reject Shop also stocks dupes similar to the iconic Portuguese plates.
However, the buzz is all about Kmart's release, which has become a hot topic among those who appreciate a good find.
This isn't the first time Kmart has made waves with its releases.
Following the launch of a new appliance that pizza lovers have dubbed the 'best kitchen launch ever,' the retailer continues to impress.
The Pizza Maker, priced at $69, features a 31 cm ceramic stone perfect for cooking both frozen and fresh pizzas.
'The dials on this make it possible to cook on a lower heat for longer, to get that base to wood-fired perfection is kind of expensive these days, so the maths is math-ing,' a satisfied customer remarked.
