With a delicate embossed surface and pure white colour tone, the Intaglio collection is a contemporary yet classical collection combining texture (inspired by knurling and engine turning, popular during the Georgian era) with a modern white glaze finish for a unique look. Intaglio is a great canvas for any dining occasion, but we think it\u2019s perfect for creating a simple table setting for breakfast or brunch.<\/p>\n

HOW TO SET A TABLE FOR BREAKFAST<\/b><\/p>\n
Breakfast is a time for connecting with family and creating a relaxing experience so setting the table should require minimal effort during early mornings and slow weekends.<\/p>\n
Keep it simple and minimalist.<\/p>\n
Start with simple white tableware. Choose small – not large – Intaglio plates and bowls which offer proper portion sizing for pastries, bread, cereal, or fruit. The teapot and mugs offer a family portion of tea or coffee for sharing. Next, create an overall minimalist look. This means clean and modern, white or neutral linens and clear glass accessories filled with natural blooms, fruit compotes and honey – giving way for the tableware to speak for itself. Follow these simple rules when creating a minimalist look in your dining space:<\/p>\n

A contemporary tableware collection,\u00a0Gio<\/a>\u00a0is of stylish white fine bone china with a distinctive texture.
