Gift ideas or a great way to add a retro touch to your dining space. This midcentury modern melamine tableware by 20th Century Cloth offers both.
It’s a label I have featured before and a busy one when it comes to midcentury modern design. You might recall the lovely midcentury modern wallpaper as well as the cloth and cushions.
But this is all about your dining space. The label has created a good selection of coasters, placemats and serving mats. Of course, they all match, so if you want to really go for it, you can theme your dining table with some lovely retro designs that scream the 1950s and 1960s.
Yes, Christmas is coming up, too. So if you know someone with a lovely of that particular era, this could be perfect gift territory. Most of the range is reasonable on your pocket, too.
As for the designs, well, you can see what they are about here. When I say midcentury modern, I mean it. They literally scream the era, no matter which design you go for.
The placemats are cork-backed melamine, the serving mats are cork-backed and heatproof, and the coasters are much the same. The difference, as you probably realise, is the size. The mats are sold in sets of four (with serving mats sold singly), and all are made by a UK manufacturer that was established in 1964. So they know what they’re doing.
A serving mat costs £24, a set of placemats is £64, and the coasters are firmly in gift territory at £22.
