Metal (aluminum, etc.) glassware

Hi,

Please take a look at the examples below [+]:

(1) metal ( bronze, aluminum, etc.) glassware

(2) plastic silverware

Either pair ("metal-glass", "plastic-silver") obviously consists of very different materials, which makes these word combinations looking kind of unique to me ... On the other hand, I am pretty sure native speakers can add many more similar ("contradictory") pairs/examples to [+]?

Thank you for your help!
