Charger plates are the plates that go under dinner plates. And if you are concerned about a hot dinner plate damaging your expensive dining table, then a wood charger plate is the way to go. In many fetching designs and wood options, you can even use them as a decor option or match them with the wood on the table top. See collection for details.
Our Picks
Contrasting Wood Charger Plate
Noritake
Crafted from acacia wood with a gorgeously rich two-tone stain, this charger plate measures 13 inches in diameter. Its natural woodgrain appearance is outlined by a matte deep black rim. Each plate will appear slightly different due to the woodgrain style.
Designer Advice:
This plate will instantly bring a warm ambiance to your dining room. The beautifully rich undertones would look amazing with a forest green table runner and an acacia wood table to match the acacia construction. Pair with either black dining chairs to match the exterior rim or stick to mid-brown for a groovy all-brown look that takes inspiration from the 1960s.
Modern Wooden Charger Plate
Design Guild
This charger plate is made from faux wood and features a sophisticated, chic, cool gray finish. It measures 13 inches wide and long. However, it can only be hand-washed, so make sure not to put it in the dishwasher.

Slim Rustic Wood Charger Plates
Saro
This set contains four charger plates. Each plate is water-resistant from 100% natural wood for added depth and texture. Lightweight in size despite their appearance, they measure 14 inches each. Note that these plates are hand-wash only.
Designer Advice:
These plates are just the thing to accessorize a mountain lodge with. Their charmingly rustic and stripped-back look will match both warm and cool décor schemes, as will the light and darker brown towns that are threaded through. If you don’t have a country lodge, you can recreate the look in your home with tartan cushions, Aztec blankets, and natural woodgrain flooring.
Thick Rustic Plate Charger
Loon Peak®
Made in the USA, this charger plate is made of kiln-dried basswood. Approved for indoor and outdoor use, it is slightly smaller than a usual charger plate at 11 inches. Plus, the thicker edge means it can hold heavier items.
Printed Wood Charger Table Setting
Corrigan Studio®
Measuring 15 inches overall, this charger table setting differs from the rest due to its bold printed design. Crafted from bamboo, it features a geometric pattern in white and burgundy and has a slim look. It can be hand washed only.
Square Wood Charger Plates for Wedding
Millwood Pines
Though this set contains four plates, each plate comes individually boxed so you can present one as a gift. The natural woodgrain is made up of several shades of brown for a mesmerizing and beautiful effect. We also love the unique square shape.
Designer Advice:
This set of plates would be a well-matched finishing touch to an outdoors or rustic-themed wedding. The glossy finish prevents them from looking dull, whereas the square design will add depth to neutral table décor. Bring out the woodgrain undertones with rich burgundy ribbons tied around the dining chairs or navy-blue cushion covers – either color would complement well.
