The magic
of metal When it comes to metal, it doesn’t have to be limited to cutlery or barware, instead it has potential to bring some shine and glamour to the table and the home with a variety of uses that are both decorative and practical. And just like the Olympics, you can add a touch of gold, silver or bronze to the setting with statement pieces or simple metallic accents that will catch the light.
Beatriz Ball
After more than three decades of bringing metalware designs to the marketplace, Beatriz Ball remains on-trend with new pieces presented in its signature polished aluminium, and in proprietary finishes of gold and gunmetal. Trending motifs include serving and decorative pieces featuring exotic textures like python and croc, as well as classic bamboo and leaf forms. Manhattan pieces including lidded boxes, handled trays, and picture frames incorporate multi-hued geometric elements inspired by the New York skyline, while the Ripples subcollection of Sierra Modern, boast shimmering surfaces in gold or gunmetal finishes. Beatriz Ball’s handmade products use eco-friendly and sustainable materials and are crafted by artisans who trace a heritage of metalworking for generations. The products are made of a top quality, FDA safe, easy-care, oven and freezer friendly aluminium alloy. beatrizball.com
Utopia
Afternoon tea is hugely popular at the moment, especially as socialising is back. Different takes and modernising the custom seem to be working well alongside more traditional and quirky servings, but no matter the styling or setting the cake-stand is a must-have when it comes to afternoon tea. Utopia has launched gold three-tier cake stands to add new flare to the item and an elegance to the table. On the bar front, Utopia’s new bulb jiggers are perfectly weighted and an essential piece of equipment for the barman making cocktails or measuring shots. They make a stylish accessory, coming in both copper and silver. www.utopia-tableware.com 58 TABLEWARE INTERNATIONAL
