Hi guys! I love H porcelain and I’m just the punch bowl shy of a completed Gold Mosaique, but now I’m thinking about starting the Carnets d’équateur… is it too late, is it already discontinued or soon to be?? I don’t wanna be left with 3 dinner plates and a cup hahaha! TYIA

Have you checked with your SA about the availability of the Carnets line (either in store, on their 'already ordered, waiting shipment' book, or orderable from Paris with a 4-8 months' wait time)? Also, not sure where you are based, but the European H websites seem to have a decent amount of stock for this line.
Yesterday my SA tried to order some H Deco place settings for me but to our surprise, he couldn’t. I don’t know what the term is but they would’ve been reserved for me whenever they came in. He said that it wasn’t available to order. He checked with the store director to make sure it hasn’t been discontinued. Very strange.
In order to “order” them on your account (which really just means “reserve them”) there have to be outstanding pieces that your SD has ordered for the store’s inventory and haven’t already been reserved for other clients. In other words, if last year at podium your store ordered ten H Deco teacups and all ten have already been delivered and sold, then there are none to “order” for you. Similarly, if the store ordered ten last season, only five have arrived and sold, but two other clients each ”ordered” and are still waiting for three apiece, there would be none to “order” for you. Has less to do with what Paris is manufacturing and more to do with what your store asked corporate to send them.
I’m seriously debating to start an H dinnerware collection. Hubby and I have narrowed down to 1 of 2 collections:
1) H Deco (the black version, not the red)
2) Balcon Du Guadalquivir
Most of our existing China are plain white color.
I think H Deco is non-microwaveable while the other one is.
Which one have you used more? Is being microwaveable important to you from experience?
Thanks!

H deco is microwaveable and dishwasher friendly. Balcon is not. I picked h deco for my dinner set and got Balcon tea set.
Temptation! This is just crying out for alfresco get togethers.
You are right, H decor isn’t microwaveable. You can double check on the website.
Sharing our tablescape during the holidays. I just love the Mosaique Gold and Carnets d’ Equateur collection. ❤️
WOWWWWW!!! I gasped. I am quite new to H world but I have to say I get as excited if not more when I see tableware. I love their leathers but tableware is just a whole other ballgame. THIS IS JUST STUNNING. Love both collections you have!! These two and passifolia are my top 3 faves H makes.
picked up the serving platter + 1 sushi tray (to use as appetizer plates). My SA is working on 7 more and they are nowhere to be found. Will wait patiently...
