Up your dinner party game with a stunning new dinnerware collection

Promotional Feature

When it comes to eating in, statement plates and bowls can transform a simple pasta dish into something that looks far more sophisticated and grammable.

Ask any foodie influencers worth their salt and they’ll tell you that leafy greens and bright veggies look most impressive served on crisp white plates or on striking prints in bold colours.

Reassuringly, we’ve found a beautiful and affordable tableware collection that combines both. Right on cue and fitting for spring, Sainsbury’s Butterfly House range features striking, dark florals that remind us of Georgia O'Keeffe’s magnified florals.

Add gold-trimming into the mix on plates, platters, and pasta dishes, and these everyday works of art bring instant style and sophistication to the table. You could even try mounting a decorative plate on a wall – it’s a SS17 interior micro-trend and one we’re definitely onboard with.

But don’t stop there, there’s more treasure to be found at Sainsbury’s homes stores. If, like us, you have magpie tendencies for all things shiny, consider investing in the 16-piece cutlery set in beautiful burnished gold. Then add champagne and wine glasses lavishly embellished with gold-edging.

Mirroring trends from the catwalks, this season’s love-in with a heady mix of floral patterns and butterfly motifs, in a palette of crisp whites, deep purple and sapphire blue is one that can work in any style living space.
