The Best Homeware Pieces To Bring Summer Into Your Space
From tantalizing tableware and luxe garden games to showstopping centerpieces for summer soirees, these are the uplifting accessories that will breathe new life into your home
Kaleidoscopic coupes
Confectionary glassware
Celebratory porcelain
Heatwave heroes
As pretty as it is practical, this lightweight, leather-trimmed fan from Loewe’s collaborative Paula’s Ibiza collection should be on display, ready to whip out when the weather requires it.
Picturesque placemats
For a charming, seasonal update to your tablescape, look to Sea’s cotton patchwork placemats. Adorned with a pattern of stripes and florals, each design is inspired by antique quilts and will make a delightful addition.
Playful plates
Josephine Dessine’s whimsical Icon collection brings new meaning to ‘dream dinner guests’. Featuring portraits of some of fashion’s most renowned figures – from Anna Wintour to Rei Kawakubo – these hand-painted porcelain plates are encircled with a floral border, and serve up a sure-fire conversation-starter.
Fabulous finales
A showstopping dessert is deserving of a vessel as dazzling as Luisa Beccaria’s fine iridescent crystalware. Crafted in Italy, this bowl is faceted with a fluted silhouette and hand-painted with dégradé blue and violet shades.
Chic coolers
Artful vessels
Delicious displays
Ceramic centerpieces
Alfresco tablescapes call for colorful ceramics. This beautiful sky-blue salad bowl by Bernadette is handmade in South Africa in collaboration with artisan Mervyn Gers, and the hand-drawn lemon design is evocative of summers spent in the Mediterranean.
Fresh scents
Stylish game sets
A guaranteed talking point at any gathering, Brunello Cucinelli’s skittles are as elegant as they are enjoyable. The skittles are each finely crafted from African abachi wood and, when the game is over, can be stored in a smart leather-trimmed caddy.
Wanderlust-inspiring reads
Take a vicarious vacation via Assouline’s Ibiza Bohemia, which bottles the creative spirit of the island. Featuring a curation of dreamy scenery, bohemian interiors and free-spirited tales, perusing the pages is almost as good as being there in person.
