Three Ideas to Get The Most Out of Your Black Dinnerware

Black dinnerware is the epitome of sophistication and elegance. It’s a design statement. It’s also bold and versatile.

Here are three ideas to get the most out of you black Maxwell & Williams items:

1.    Contrast with Vibrant Colours and Textures

The beauty of black dinnerware lies in its ability to act as a canvas for your food. Vibrant, colourful dishes pop against the deep, dark backdrop, making your meals visually stunning! Think bright salads with greens, reds, and yellows or rich desserts with berries and cream.  

Why not serve charred steak with grill marks or a smooth panna cotta with glossy sauce on a black plate?

2.     Combine Colourful Sets with Black

Our Maxwell & Williams ranges are perfect for mixing and matching. Aim for a bold, modern aesthetic by pairing black dinnerware with colourful, napkins, table runners or floral centrepieces to achieve a bold and modern aesthetic.

Build your collection over time, or pair your basics with other Maxwell & Williams ranges for a personalized touch. Using colourful, patterned sets along with black will certainly create a talking point at the table.

3.     Go for a Monochrome Look

For a minimalist but striking presentation, embrace the monochrome trend by sticking to an all black theme. Be bold and pair your black dinnerware with black napery, black cutlery and black centre pieces  to create a sleek and modern table setting. Add small metallic touches like gold or silver to enhance the elegance. This approach is perfect for formal events or when you want to impress your guests with understated luxury.
