Setting a table when the light finally takes its place at the dinner table is pure and simple springtime joy. The promise of light seems almost heightened by the freshly mangled white linen tablecloth, and the promise of warmth feels ever more present with the perfect flower vase. A perfect spring table setting is about more than beautiful aesthetics, however – it is about the heightened experience of sitting together in warmth, laughter and moments of pleasure around the table.
Throughout history, the art of table setting has been an expression of the ideals and craftsmanship of its time. From grand banquets to intimate dinners in the home, the objects on the table have signalled both function and status. Today we are fortunate to be able to choose freely among the old and the contemporary to create our own unique atmosphere.
At Formstad you will find carefully selected pieces to suit all of spring's meals and gatherings. Why not brighten up the home with Rörstrand's Mon Amie service, wine glasses from Orrefors' Nobel series or an elegant damask tablecloth from Georg Jensen Damask? Let the table setting become part of the experience – and spring a time to gather around the table.
