Tableware trends 2023
#freshlysettable
  • If you dare to look beyond the end of your plate in 2023, you can discover a lot on today's table & board. Dynamic change forms the defining constant in the world of annual food and lifestyle trends. And that impacts how, when and where we eat - and most importantly, from what. Dear ones, it is 2023, we invite you to the table.

    Individuality & creativity - An end to specifications. Never before have we had so much freedom of choice as in this day and age. Whether it's the outfit that accompanies us to the next celebration and reflects our personality & individuality or the individual avatar of our numerous digital accounts - we can shape ourselves, our environment and our lives every day anew. So why settle once and for all when it comes to our table & dining culture? Mix & match is the magic word - combine your favorite plates, expand your existing tableware elements with new pieces from a completely different collection, or create a unique atmosphere with a new, creative combination. For example, how about a combination of the bright white "N°41 Royal Blossom" collection with the iconic sea of flowers relief and the sophisticated "N°41 Noble Blue" collection with modern interpretation of the famous onion pattern decor?

    Asian / Korean cuisine - Whether Thai, Chinese or Japanese - the love for Asian cuisine has basically been unbroken for many years. But with the enthusiasm for South Korean culture in Germany, Europe and the world, this trend is once again being elevated to whole new heights. Dishes like bibimbap, japchae or bulgogi have long since taken the culinary hearts of South Korean fans by storm. Simple recipes for Tteokbokki (Deep Fried Rice Cake with Chili Paste) or Oi Muchim (Spicy Cucumber Salad) have gone viral around the world and inspired the community to follow suit. The "Waves Relief Asia Collection" was specially designed to capture the beauty and aesthetics of Asian culture. The ornate relief reflects traditional patterns and symbols from the region, adding an elegant and exotic flair to your table.


"Where love sets the table, food tastes best"
French saying
  • Deceleration & Craftsmanship - Digitalization has accelerated the world. Information travels around the planet at nearly the speed of light, and speed has become an integral part of our lives. Generative AI tools create texts, images and designs that we consume one moment and forget the next. Reason enough that in many of us burns the desire for deceleration, for long moments of enjoyment, for authenticity and craft. In contrast to the hectic everyday life, we want to celebrate the home meal as a happening and fully savor every moment. And the best way to do this is with a high-quality porcelain table & dinner service that does justice to the moment of enjoyment in all its beauty. The "MEISSEN® Cosmopolitan Giant Bloom" collection collection combines traditional porcelain craftsmanship with porcelain painting and contemporary design. Each piece in this collection is a true work of art that uniquely reflects the expertise and dedication of the craftsmanship of the MEISSEN porcelain manufactory.

    Sea love - Equivalent to the longing for deceleration is also the longing for distance. Thus, the trend "sea love" has gained a special meaning this year. The "MEISSEN® Cosmopolitan Blue Treasures" collection brings the radiant beauty of the ocean to your table and reflects the fascination for the sea and its treasures. With delicate shades of blue, inspired by the depths of the sea, and elegant decorations in the form of shells, seahorses and other maritime elements, an enchanting ambience is created. Each piece tells its own story and makes you dream of distant shores.

    Trends provide inspiration, but which culinary creation is served at which event from whichever piece of porcelain from MEISSEN is still up to you. In the end, what counts is that there is passion and love in every component. Because where love sets the table, food tastes best.
