Concept, covers, opening date and any mood board. Got a kit list or a saved basket? Send it and we will work from that.

02

See it on the table

Samples sent to you or a supplier showroom visit, so the chef and designers can choose together.

    We work with potteries and glassworks across the UK and Europe and never stop looking, so your tables don’t look like everyone else’s.

  2. We save your opening team time

    Samples come to you, prices and lead times come back quickly, and we deliver when you’re ready rather than when it suits us.

  3. We’re easy to deal with

    We answer the phone, handle the logistics and turn up on delivery day. Many of our clients have come back to us for their next site.
