For some, Easter may not be thought of as a time to splurge and by gifts for others, or even for yourself. A few chocolates and knick knacks for the kids, Easter usually falls by the wayside as a time to shop. But it is in fact, one of the best times of year to give your kitchenware that much needed make over, or even just a simple boost of style. It’s spring and the time of rebirth, so here are some ideas for luxury kitchenware handcrafted in Italy and available on Capolavori.
Ceramic place settings
How many years have you been saying it? You want to change your dinnerware, you just never get around to it, or you simply want to invest in something special. With Ceramica Kamars ceramic place settings, you will find truly unique pieces, one you won’t find in your neighbor’s home. Straight from Italy, this set of plates and bowls are individually handmade and painted, for a wonderful work of art brought to your dining room table. Designs of rich blues, yellows and reds, treat yourself and your guests to a trip to the Mediterranean with this stunning, one-of-a-kind dinnerware.
Appetizer Dishes
No party, dinner or gathering is complete without a few exquisite hors d’oeuvres. If you’re not ready to splurge on an entire dinner set, or simply don’t need one, add a few stunning table accents here and there like an antipasto dish. The starter trays by Ceramica Kamars are decorated with classic Tuscan landscapes and are a great way to present a vegetable platter or antipasto of mixed meats, cheeses and olives.
Wine coasters
What’s a party without a bit of wine? Nothing is nicer than a bottle of red and white on the table, but when they have the right holders, they become a real attention grabber and conversation starter for your guests. We travel to the heart of Umbria in Italy, where we find Fratelli Mari and their exquisite handmade ceramic pieces, including fabulous wine bottle holders that feature Deruta Renaissance motifs. Get a few and use them as decorative centerpieces on the your Easter spread.
Lux desserts
Easter biscuits, cheesecake, ricotta pie, chocolate eclairs? Serve these much loved Easter goodies in style. Fratelli Mari offers a captivating choice of serving plates like the Ricco Deruta Vassoio Ondulato, which may be used for both desserts and other foods served. Have you ever thought about investing in a great cake platter? Look no further than the unique, luxury collection offered on Capolavori, all of course made and painted by hand. If you want to bake your Easter cookies the day before and keep them fresh, think about a lovely handprinted cookie jar like the Pompei Biscottiera or the Garden Biscottiera. Not only is it great to present to your guests, but it makes a nice addition to your otherwise plain countertop.
When it comes to luxury in the kitchen, style and design are just part of it. With the rare treasures on Capolavori offer something more: intricate craftsmanship and the art of being totally exclusive: now that is luxury served this Easter.
