Oh wow, this got approved! Thanks mods!
Consider this a BUMP. :D
I like the first one, in it's simplicity and elegance! The second one is more quirky, if that's your thing. Is it textured or just patterned?
I didn't see the third one...?
(Don't worry about the moderation bit either; the system automatically holds posts with lots of images and links, so it was nothing personal!)
The second one, Berry and Thread, has raised "berries" just around the rims; the rest isn't textured. And I can see the third one - weird! Here's a link to number three, in case the pics fail to load for you:

And TY for the info on the moderation! Yeah, I found out after the fact that my low post count + a bunch of links = spam checks, lol.
I think the first one is something more timeless that will go with any decor or pieces.
I voted for number 1. The other two are nice (I really liked the Juliska Berry and Thread when I first saw it) but they aren't as versatile like Anmut Platinum is.
They are all very pretty in different ways. It seems today almost everyone picks something similar to number 1 because it is timeless- I understand why, but sometimes it is nice to see more of a couple's personality in their china.
My everday is plain white Crate and Barrel, but the fine china we are looking at are more over the top.
I loved #2 until I scrolled even further and fell in love with #3! Gorgeous! I am in love with my pattern (Lenox Chirp) but you have me considering cheating :)
I like the first one! The other two are really unique, but I tend toward simplicity. Gorgeous options!
I really like the berry and thread one (No. 2) because it seems to be a nice balance of the three options you posted. Not sure if this is what you're going for, but it's also very vintage-elegant, which I love.
LOVE #1! Simple and elegant; a timeless pattern style -- they'll never look dated. Also, that beautifully streamlined teapot just KILLS me! So gorgeous!
love the classic beauty of #1, but I really love #3...how unique!!
I voted #1. It reminds me of the Lenox Federal Pattern we registered for.
I love number two because it combines the simplicity of the first set and the elegence of the third (: best of both worlds.
I vote #1. But it's very similar to mine..white with a platinum rim. I ended up picking a plainer china because I could register for different accent plates to go with it without being stuck with one pattern for life...

OK ladies, you were so wonderful to help me with my Fiestaware post; we're now registered for turquoise, shamrock, sunflower, and peacock dishes for everyday!
(TY to caszos for the picture and suggestion! FI and I owe you girl!)
Keeping our casual dinnerware in mind, which of these white china patterns is your favorite? Some of these aren't considered 'formal' on the Bloomingdale's site, but they're definitely dressier than our daily dinnerware!
Keeping that in mind, which of these china patterns do you like best? I finally narrowed it down to 4!
1. "Anmut Platinum" by Villeroy & Boch; $105 per five piece set; bone china
http://www1.bloomingdales.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=468814&PseudoCat=se-xx-xx-xx.esn_results
Clean. Sleek. Simple. But beautiful in its shape and high quality. It would be versatile and very easy to dress up with chargers, crystal, and other table accessories. At the same time, I could serve pizza or Chinese takeout on these and keep things low key. I can't get over the shape of the handles on the teapot and tea cups! So, so pretty:
2. "Berry and Thread" by Juliska; no 5 piece set - each piece comes separately with $39 per dinner plate, $34 per scalloped dessert/salad plate, etc; stoneware
http://www1.bloomingdales.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=233344&PseudoCat=se-xx-xx-xx.esn_results
A classic, from what the good people at Bloomingdale's tell me. This is the brand's bestselling pattern, and it will hopefully be around for years to come, meaning I can replace as needed. I like the different shapes of each pieces, the chargers, and the fact that there's so much matching serverware! Baking dishes, cake stands, pitchers, several different platters, etc. There's also several different options for plates, cups, and so on.
3. "Jardins Du Monde" by Juliska; no 5 piece set, $44 per dinner plate, $42 per salad, etc; stoneware
http://www1.bloomingdales.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=233405&CategoryID=3865&LinkType=PDPZ1
Like the other Juliska pattern, this one comes with a good amount of serverware. It's a lot girlier than the other two shown, and I feel like I could serve Easter, Christmas and Thanksgiving dinner off of it with pride! Every single piece has a different pattern, and I feel that's what makes this pattern so very special. Comes with some gorgeous canisters, platters, and a lot of dramatically different small plates and pitchers!
