The August 2015 issue of Tableware International goes big on the Giftware category, delivering not just the latest giftworthy tabletop launches, but a report on how giftware and tabletop is increasingly converging. Also converging is fine dining and casual dining and we look at the brands and products bridging the gap between fine and casual. We also spotlight the Christmas period, with the latest launches and a discsussion on the best places to source festive offerings. On the retail front, we interview the founders of leading luxury home etailer Amara who are celebrating their 10th anniversary and our regular retail columnist discusses cross-category expansion. Plus, don't miss the debut column from industry expert and enthusiast Isabelle von Boch!
