Serveware

Serveware is what separates a meal put on the table from a meal presented. Handmade bowls, boards, platters and stands in timber, marble and ceramic, chosen because they look good carrying food and still look good sitting empty on a bench.

The most-used piece in most homes is a mid-size shallow bowl, because it takes salad, roast vegetables, pasta and fruit without complaint. Start there, then add a long board for grazing and a raised stand for height. Mixing materials across the table reads richer than matching everything.

Round out the table

Add platters and trays, bowls and cake stands, and match everyday pieces from dinnerware.
