Need help buying a dinnerware set? Find your style: From Japandi to classic
Choosing the right tableware set
A dinnerware set is more than just a collection of plates: it sets the mood at the table. Whether you prefer a cozy Japandi style with natural hues and clean lines or a more classic interior, the right dinnerware set makes all the difference. When buying a dinnerware set, your interior, the dishes you serve, and the production process all play a role. In this blog post, we explain what to consider when choosing a new dinnerware set.
Look at your interior: From Japandi style to very colorful
Your home reveals a lot about your taste. A Japandi style is characterized by a combination of Japanese minimalism and Scandinavian warmth: soothing colors, natural materials, and simple shapes. Choose plates in earthy tones, matte glazes, and subtle textures. Do you have a colorful or vibrant interior? Then you can play with reactive glazes or contrasting hues. By coordinating the colors of your tableware with your interior, you create harmony at the table.
Tune in to your dishes: The eye also wants something
The shape and color of a plate offer you various options when plating. Do you enjoy serving pasta and stews? Choose deep pasta plates with a raised rim. For desserts and small dishes, flat plates in light shades work well; they allow the colors to pop. Robust stoneware suits comfort food, while refined porcelain adds elegance to a dinner party.
Craftsmanship, quality and sustainability
All our tableware sets are made in Portugal using traditional methods. Craftspeople use natural clay, water, and minerals and apply a matte glaze by hand. Furthermore, heat, water, and materials are reused to make production as sustainable as possible. This results in high-quality tableware that will last for generations and fits a conscious lifestyle.
