A thoughtfully laid table helps set the mood for your
dinner party. Once you’ve decided on a theme, the
tableware can be confidently selected to imbue the
whole occasion with personality, whether that be a
raw and natural look, or one that is unreservedly luxe.
SET THE SCENE
The collection of homewares at David Jones features
a variety of brands that each deliver that special
something. The elegant, nature-inspired look (top)
features an earthy colour palette courtesy of dinner
plates from David Jones by Robert Gordon, and
bowls from Dinosaur Designs and Broste, with the
table and chairs from Tony Parker. The Menu vases
add an autumnal touch and the Studio W ‘Soho’
cutlery set, with its simple lines, makes a bold finish.
The luxe look pictured left was created with lavish
vases from Menu, candlesticks and candles from
Georg Jensen, aubergine napkins from Broste,
a Country Road table cloth in grey and large white
Serax dinner plates. The opulent look is enhanced
by the rose-gold hues of Tom Dixon’s decanter,
glasses and tongs, and the David Jones cutlery set.
For the more textured look pictured above,
the Serax dinnerware and goblets perfectly
complement the marble tabletop, while the bold
Georg Jensen cutlery and delicate Krosno wine
glasses refine the look. The eye-catching Denby
dinner plate (inset) adds a touch of cool.- Homewares are available at your nearest
