The right tableware for every moment of the day
A table often says more than you think. It's where you start the day with breakfast, where you have lunch together, or where dinner slowly transitions into an evening of conversation. And one thing makes it all just that little bit more special: the tableware.
Tableware isn't just practical; it also sets the mood. Do you prefer sleek and modern or warm and playful? The choice matters more than you think. That's why in this blog post, we'll guide you through different types and collections of tableware suitable for every meal: from a leisurely breakfast to a full dinner.
Porcelain vs. stoneware tableware
Porcelain and stoneware may seem similar, but they bring a completely different atmosphere to the table. Porcelain is refined, classic, and lightweight. It looks sleek and elegant, making it perfect for formal occasions or for those who appreciate a timeless look.
Stoneware, on the other hand , is sturdier, often has organic shapes and a more natural look. It adds character and warmth, and complements a modern, casual, or even creative table setting.
Good to know: both porcelain and stoneware are dishwasher-safe and microwave-safe. The oven, however, is not an option.
Breakfast: A fresh start to the day
A good start to the day begins with a delicious breakfast. And it's even better when served in tableware that suits your style. Whether you opt for a quick bowl of yogurt with fruit or take your time with sandwiches and coffee, a good look is important too.
The Feeling collection by Médard de Noblat brings color to the table. Turquoise , Indigo , Jade , or Bronze : each piece energizes and turns a simple breakfast into something cheerful. For those who prefer a calm and simple look, there's Oslo White/Linen : made of stoneware and combining simplicity with playfulness. The organic shapes create a modern look, while the neutral tones ensure the tableware fits effortlessly into any kitchen.
And of course, a mug for a delicious coffee or tea at breakfast is a must. The Vertigo Denim mug or the Shadow Nacre mug are the perfect addition to your breakfast setting. Fresh coffee in a sturdy mug and fresh yogurt in a colorful bowl—that sounds great, right?
Lunch your way
Lunch is often the time to pause and recharge. Sometimes it's a quick salad, sometimes a warm bowl of soup, a simple sandwich, or a hearty pasta dish. With the right tableware, lunch can give you that extra boost of energy for the rest of the day.
The Feeling collection by Médard de Noblat is a true all-rounder. Thanks to the various colors and shapes, you can create endless combinations: a salad in a deep plate , pasta on a large plate , or soup in a bowl .
For those looking for something unique, there are the Shadow Aqua and Shadow Nacre collections. Each piece is crafted from reactive-glazed stoneware, meaning no two plates or bowls are exactly alike. The Aqua pieces have a vibrant interior, while the Nacre pieces have a pearlescent sheen. Either way, they're always stylish, always a touch special.
This way, lunch becomes a small moment of enjoyment.
Go all out or just enjoy a nice dinner
In the evening, the table can often be a little more festive. Whether you're inviting friends over for a lavish dinner or simply enjoying a meal with family, the right tableware will complete the evening. Think dinner plates , dessert plates , and large serving platters that together create a beautiful ensemble.
The Shadow Aqua and Shadow Nacre collections bring warmth to the table. The reactive glaze makes each piece unique, with organic shapes and a rim that adds a touch of golden brown. Ideal for long evenings when the table is laden with dishes to share.
Prefer sleek and versatile? The Yaka White / Black collection of fine porcelain is pure and minimalist, perfect for both a formal dinner and a weekday meal. And how about the 18-piece porcelain sets from Batik or Sven ? They'll give you everything you need in one place.
Can you picture it? A table filled with a variety of dishes, good company, and tableware that completes the picture. That's dining with character.
The table as an eye-catcher during festive occasions
On special occasions, the table deserves a little extra attention. Large serving platters from the Shadow Aqua and Shadow Nacre collections are perfect for this. Their unique glaze and warm hues make every dish a centerpiece.
Festive moments are all about being together with loved ones and sharing. A platter overflowing with food in the middle of the table, everyone serving and enjoying. With tableware that invites you to gather, every celebration becomes just that little bit more special.
From water to wine
No table is complete without the right glasses . They create balance in your table setting and make the difference between a casual meal and a beautifully presented meal. The Diamond collection from Médard de Noblat adds that extra touch.
With their refined relief pattern, the 22 cl glasses and 20 cl wine glasses combine a rustic look with a modern twist. Available in various colors, they're always dishwasher-safe and durable enough for everyday use.
Whether you choose a quiet table setting with Oslo or the colorful Feeling collection: the Diamond glasses fit seamlessly and add a touch of elegance to any occasion.
