The Art of Setting the Perfect Table

The Art of Setting the Perfect Table

1. Setting the Table with Style

Hosting a dinner party is all about the details—and a flawless table setting sets the tone for the entire evening. The right pieces elevate the experience, making your guests feel welcomed and cared for from the moment they sit down.

Creating a thoughtful table setting starts with the foundation. A placemat defines each guest’s space and adds structure to the table. Next comes the dinnerware: a 10–12 inch Rhombe dinner plate from Lyngby Porcelain anchors the setting, with an 8–9 inch Rhombe lunch plate (which doubles perfectly as a salad plate) layered on top. If you’re serving soup, a coordinating Rhombe bowl completes the look.


2. Glassware and Accessories

Glassware placement brings both functionality and balance. The water glass should sit directly above the knife, with the red and white wine glasses positioned to the right in order of use—red first, then white. The Grand Cru collection from Rosendahl offers elegant glassware options that are perfect for any occasion.

Accessories add the finishing touch. Salt and pepper shakers placed between guests make for easy sharing, while a pair of candle holders creates a soft, inviting glow. These small details add warmth and sophistication to the overall presentation.


3. The Perfect Hosting Experience

A well-set table shows your guests that you’ve thought of everything. From the placement of glassware to the glow of candlelight, it’s these thoughtful touches that make a meal feel special.
