Bring festive highlights to the table –  Build the theme by adding decorative ornaments or tree ornaments to the table. This is a delightful way to dress the table and personalise place settings for guests.

Delectable treats – Spread the festivites beyond the dining table by keeping biscuits, nuts and other snacks in individual bowls or tray stands dotted around the house for guests to tuck into throughout the day.

La-Classica-Contura-Christm

A white Christmas – With so much colour around the home at Christmas, classic white tableware such as Villeroy & Boch’s La Classica collection can be a calming addition to the tablescape. All white tableware complements colourful stemware and festive foods with a magical touch.

Use your stemware – Whether its a casual celebration or a more formal Christmas event, drinks and desserts will always look and taste better in beautiful glassware – taking the meal from the every day to something special.

The Villeroy & Boch Christmas collection is available from selected department stores and online here.
