Bone China is the most durable material for dinnerware.

The bone china actually contains real bones (cow bone ash, usually).

This special ingredient makes bone china thinner and smoother than regular porcelain, giving it a creamy, white color and opaqueness.

Stainless Steel and plastic is also pretty durable for dinnerware.

The best utensil for drinking water is glass as it contains no chemicals.

Stainless Steel is also a good material for drinking water from and even steel cups.

Copper is also good to drink from as copper actually has some antibacterial properties.

Copper is the only metal with anti-bacterial properties, which were proved to be true even during the 1800s when copper mine workers were immune to Cholera.

The best utensils that are best for eating are stainless steel and silverware utensils.

Even aluminum utensils and cookware are okay for eating with but stainless steel and silverware utensils are the best to eat with.
