If you're searching for a way to increase your kitchen cabinet storage without sacrificing style, we just discovered a genius solution. The iconic Villeroy & Boch La Boule dinnerware set turns a set of dishes into a single sculptural sphere, with each bowl and plate grouped together like a nesting doll. We love that it feels futuristic while solving a very practical storage problem, giving you a complete two-person dishware set that takes up the space of one round object. The only catch is the price. The large dinnerware set costs $667 at full price, while the smaller La Petite Boule snacking set is $320. If that's more than you planned to spend on your dinnerware, you might appreciate Lenox x Kate Spade's nesting dinnerware set. This dupe offers a similarly clever concept in both a large and a mini nesting set, currently priced at $124.97 and $89.97, respectively.

One of the biggest benefits of a nesting dinnerware set is how much space it can free up in your kitchen cabinets. Instead of storing bowls, plates, and serving pieces in separate stacks, everything fits neatly into one compact shape. If you don't want to take up any cabinet space at all, we also love the idea of displaying this piece directly on the countertop. Both the Villeroy & Boch La Boule set and the Lenox x Kate Spade set have been designed to look like intentional décor. Overall, we think a nesting dishware set is an eye-catching essential if you're looking for an unexpected feature to give your kitchen more storage space.

The large Lenox x Kate Spade set includes eight pieces in total, with six bowls and two plates. The larger Villeroy & Boch La Boule set also includes six bowls, but instead of two plates, it comes with a single serving platter, bringing the total to seven pieces. Both sets are made of porcelain and are dishwasher- and microwave-safe. If saving every bit of cabinet space is your priority, the Lenox version has another small advantage: it measures 8 inches across, while the larger La Boule set measures 9.41 inches in diameter. The smaller snacking versions of the two also differ by about an inch.

Although the Lenox x Kate Spade collaboration only comes in one color and pattern, Lenox offers a few variations of nesting dishware, including a pearly white French-style set and a Disney-inspired version. The Lenox x Kate Spade set in particular has a playful look that works well in both modern and retro interiors. In its closed, spherical form, it features a crisp white base with black polka dots and pink and red ribbons that wrap around the center. One detail we especially love is how the Kate Spade version keeps a bit of the surprise hidden until you open it! The exterior gives you a preview with its polka dots and ribbon, but the bright blue bowls are only revealed once the sphere comes apart. The Villeroy & Boch La Boule set, by comparison, showcases nearly all of its colors and patterns from the outside. Beyond being a smart storage solution, the set is a low-commitment way to add a subtle splash of color to your kitchen.

There isn't much customer feedback available for either collection. However, there is a single review for the large Lenox x Kate Spade set — and it's a glowing five-star review. The customer wrote, "I have this nesting set in blue already. We like it and we [tried a] different pattern. This pattern looks fancier than the plain blue." To us, that's one of the most encouraging kinds of reviews because it comes from someone who enjoyed the collection enough to purchase it again in another design.

If you're trying to maximize cabinet space with a simple hack that doesn't require remodeling, this is one of the most creative solutions we've come across. Instead of filling cabinets with multiple stacks of dishes, you can keep an entire coordinated set together in one compact piece. We also like that both brands offer different sizes, making it easy to choose a dinnerware or snacking set depending on the occasion. Both the Villeroy & Boch La Boule set and the Lenox x Kate Spade set are beautiful space-saving options. In the end, it simply comes down to whether you prefer the premium designer option or the more budget-friendly alternative with its own eye-catching take on the concept.
