THElet’s leave the classic red tablecloth in the drawer, this year Christmas is dressed in white and blue. The table becomes the place to display all the little love at first sight found in the markets. Perfect for making family service contemporary, as in this Royal Copenhagen table with the classic “Blue Fluted” service.
Pay attention to details
It’s nice to combine new objects with others with an ancient flavor. If the service we like so much has an eccentric decoration, it will be enough to recall Christmas with a centerpiece of berries and flowers. In the table of Mara Fogazzi, passionate about décor and owner ofOsteria Il Gambero in Pontevico, the plate by Astier de Villatte and the designer water glass give a very personal touch. Of gold and silver.
Set the table with a bold spirit
For a “boho” mise en place, the must is an overabundance of elements. Floral patterns find space on the table, appearing among geometric decorations, creating an overlap of motifs delimited by placemats. In the center, a composition of ginko and flowers in shades of red, as on the table designed by LaDoubleJ.
Step two
Even an intimate lunch for two deserves importanceIndeed, more space and voice can be given to feelings. Make way for well-crafted crockery, glass that becomes romantic declarations of love, golden place cards and colorful fabrics. All together they are able to recreate a world of magic and atmosphere, cow in this mise en place by Coincasa.
Non-conformisms
Setting an out of the ordinary Christmas table also involves choosing colours. Therefore make room for brighter colors such as yellow and blue, which will join the more classic red and green for a bright and luminous dinner.
The inevitable touch of gold: look at this table made with synthetic crystal accessories by Mario Luca Giusti.
