Italian Stallion

One of the masters of fine glassware, internationally renowned Luigi Bormioli, is a little excited to announce the launch of their fine bone dinnerware collection - Luigi Bormioli Michelangelo. Inspired by the essence of Italian dining this classic collection would make an ideal wedding gift or addition to any gift registry. The collection is made from superior vitrified fine bone china and each piece is encompassed with a premium glaze formula that is fired at high temperatures to produce a ‘vitrified’ body which seals each piece for strength and resistance to surface scratches. The rimmed plates in the collection feature a reinforced rolled edge that provides excellent resistance against chipping. The Michelangelo 20 piece formal dinner set contains 28cm dinner plates, 24cm rim soup plates, 23cm salad plates, cups and saucers and retails for $249.00AUS. The 16 piece everyday dinner set comprises 28cm dinner plates, 18cm coupe bowls, 23cm salad plates and 350ml coupe mugs and retails for $199.00AUS. Fourteen additional individual dinnerware items and a host of matching accessories are available that allow you to build your collection to suit your lifestyle. The Luigi Bormioli Michelangelo Collection is available from David Jones and independent homeware stores across Australia. For stockists enquiries call McPherson’s Consumer Products on 1800 65 11 46.

The Dinosaur Age

I think it's becoming more and more popular to offer a couple of different choices when choosing your wedding registry. We see lots of brides choosing the more traditional department store/online store registries and mixing it with something a little more personal like an art gallery, favourite antique store or boutique homeware/furniture store. When I found out that Dinosaur Designs have just launched their online Gift and Wedding Registry, I thought that their bright and beautiful resin homewares would be perfect to complement a more tradtional registry.
