A UNIQUE LOOK FOR INDIVIDUALISTS

Individuality and natural authenticity are the key features of POTTERY. The decors on the large plates, platters and delicate dishes give them the look and feel of ceramic surfaces. Vibrant shades meet natural colours, lending the porcelain an entirely new, natural aesthetic whereby the consistently hand-made look makes each piece unique. POTTERY thus provides creative scope for the attractive presentation of food – from Asian to bistro. Naturally, the entire POTTERY range with its ceramic look features the accustomed high quality of hard porcelain inclusive of dishwasher-safe underglaze decor.

CONTRAST-RICH COMBINATIONS

Three different decor concepts allow the interplay of different colours and surfaces. POTTERY UNIQUE is delicately speckled in White, Lightgrey, Darkgrey and Red. POTTERY JADE has an impressively smooth and elegant look, while the slate look of POTTERY FROSTED BLACK has a matte surface.

Jo Laubner’s spherical design vocabulary laughs in snobbery’s face. The emphatically rounded naturalness is plain, down-to-earth and cheerful. It is a shape that is perfect for many different purposes.

HIGHLY PERSONABLE
VARIO convinces with flair, independence and a clean, unembellished design. At the same time, VARIO is more than just a functional system dining service. The collection has deliberately been given a sensual design, creating an atmosphere that encourages enjoyment. It is a range that, with only a few pieces, can be extremely versatile, and it can do everything that one expects today from a high end professional dining service.

PRESENTATION
With VARIO, guests don’t simply sit down at a set table: They experience a modern, tasteful presentation that whets the appetite for more. The collection owes its unmistakable character to the simultaneous presence of precise lines and smoothly converging surfaces.

EMOTION
Just one look at this collection designed by Jo Laubner is enough to convey its naturalness and, despite the fascination of its logic, it still appeals directly to the emotions as well. Whether it is used in the lobby of a top hotel or in a beautiful garden restaurant, this service always exudes joy. Such a permanently positive mood makes VARIO a flexible and practical partner in the world of professional dining.

Communal catering really shows the full extent of the collection’s diversity. The emphatically simple visual language fits in with every communal catering concept and handles different food themes with the greatest of ease. Designed to fit all standard tray shapes, large-scale catering presents no problem at all to VARIO.

ELEGANCE

The really distinctive quality of porcelain becomes particularly noticeable, when the pure, white form speaks for itself. As it does with DONNA. A form, whose gently curved raised pattern of arches reflects a certain uniqueness.

PLEASURE
Pleasure across the entire spectrum – the harmony of DONNA emerges through a finely crafted raised pattern of arches, which open out on all pieces. A real pleasure to behold. And when will your guests share the pleasure?

DECORATIVE IMPRESSIONS
Or: the creative. With DONNA no limits are set to decorative design. Again and again new decor patterns show that modern interpretations, just like the intonation of classical lines, impart accents to “DONNA“ which are quite individual. Simply choose the decor pattern that appeals to your taste. Or realise your own imagination in an individual decor. We will help you.

Sanspareil – in one word: incomparable
Sometimes shapes are created which are unique. Such as the incomparable shape 798 – therefore it is called Sanspareil. The designer Ferdinand Pleyer picked up baroque stylistic elements and with their help he gave new life to the movements of a great epoch. For example by the soft lines, which are continued from the coffee pot and the festooned plates to the lavish handles. Underlined by a fine relief, which covers the whole shape like a translucent cloth.

Noblesse oblige
Sanspareil breathes the air of an epoch when porcelain was reserved for noble society only. When the white gold was said to have magic features. Today the shape still enchants the guest not only by its lovely created details: a small band decorated with golden flowers, combined with a fine marble structure underlines the festive appearance of Sanspareil.

The tables culmination
In creating shape Marquis, the sculptor Hans Achtziger succeeded in combining sophisticated design and the requirements of the gastronomy and catering trade. And for this reason Marquis – as part of a superior en – tire arrangement – appeals the guests through optical stimulants. To experience a tremendous evening. To enjoy the moment at candlelight. The right moment for Marquis.

For a festival of the senses
Who could resist? The traditional language of the cups’ and pots’ shape, the richly decorated handles as well as the sophisticated lid knobs speak a seductive, enjoy able language. All service items are decorated with a fine relief – a reminiscence of the art of festooning. And the plate’s rim is also decorated with rich relief ornaments.

A large range of decor patterns
Precious like a filigrane braid trimming: without decor pattern Marquis enchants the guest with its baroque touch. This impression can be designed individually with the help of decor patterns. Here you can choose from a large range of standard decor patterns. We are, however, gladly prepared to design individual patterns and logos for your establishment. All inglaze decor patterns are resistant to scratches and dishwasher proof. For this reason Marquis will be a precious detail in your entire arrangement for a long time.

As simple as it is ingenious: Dr. Hermann Gretsch’s timeless design laid the foundations for Schönwald’s design competence in 1936. Its reduced aesthetics makes this shape so versatile that it is perfectly possible to interpret modern needs with it.

The new vogue for coffee
Coffee is the drink of the moment, with coffees for every taste and every occasion.
This is more than just a passing fad, because coffee has developed into a genuine lifestyle theme. A modern classic, the legendary shape 98 by Schönwald, ensures that you can savour it in true style in all its many international variations. The new series of tall cups, available in five different sizes, blends harmoniously into shape 98’s design concept. From the classic espresso cup & saucer to various cup sizes for cappuccino and the like to oversize mugs for hot beverages in the XXL-theme a playful mixture of different sizes guarantees coffee culture at the highest level.

Colourful variations for coffee time
Four lively colours with handwritten motifs characterize the décor concept Combination. Put together combinations by chance: sunny yellow cups on green saucers, casual blue striped plates offset by the purple sugar-bowl lid or coffee pot – every combination has its special charm! The gentle colour gradation in addition creates interesting reflections of colour between the sides of the cups and the saucers. The handwritten motifs, placed seemingly at random, underscore the experimental character of this novel short series. Combination brings colour into a monochrome everyday environment and invites you to make the most of enjoying your cup of coffee.

A gentle interplay of colours
The Lorano pattern blends unassertively and harmoniously with the gentle shapes of shape 98, creating a rounded stylistic effect. The combination of watercolour blue and fresh, fragrant mint green, linked by stylised twining leaves, conjures up freshness and lightness on your table.

A new look
Pattern Young Line – available in the four modern pastel shades lilac, light blue, sage and vanilla – tastefully and cleanly interprets the classic design of shape 98. White lines interrupt large blocks of colour, creating an exciting transition with the white of the china. On shape 98, the combination of the clear formal idiom, the trendy colour scheme and the graphically pure pattern generates an entirely new look with which you can entertain your guests in a vivaciously modern style.

Custom décors

BLURRING THE BORDER BETWEEN TABLE AND BUFFET
Ingenious creations are often born out of simple ideas: the square and the circle. Using only two basic geometric shapes, EVENT unfolds a diversity of shapes that offers infinite scope for combinations at the buffet and dining table. The collection even goes one crucial step further, creating a perfect bridge between the modern buffet and sophisticated dining culture. The porcelain from which the guest serves himself at the buffet is also on his dining table. The borders between table and buffet open giving rise to a new, harmonious unity.

EVENT delightfully embodies the clearly expressed intention of multi award-winning designer Carsten Gollnick to create the combination of functionality and formal aesthetic, that makes the special flexibility of this collection possible in the first place.

INDIVIDUALISTS WHO FORM A PERFECT UNIT
Each piece in the EVENT collection is a highlight in itself, dazzling even when it stands alone. What is so extraordinary is that all of the elements of the collection come together to create such a successful whole. Surprising new harmonies are created with each different combination of the individual pieces at the buffet or on the table.

FLEXIBLE COMBINATIONS
EVENT uses the entire spectrum of creative tools to produce intense moments of pleasure. With a mix of different shapes and special materials such as wood, glass, basket weave, stainless steel and porcelain, a further dimension is added to table presentation. Gastronomic creativity can combine shapes, colours, decors and materials in different ways to produce impressive arrangements.

Few elements – huge impact.

UNLIMITED is an inspiring crossing of borders. The emphatically purist range gathers selected items from various collections into one versatile ensemble. With a large number of differently shaped pieces, there is ample scope to present modern dishes in a creative way.

PORCELAIN FOR EVERY OCCASION
Less is more. The original and simultaneously reduced design vocabulary produces a convincing selection of items in the UNLIMITED collection. Thanks to this clarity, UNLIMITED may be integrated into any ambience with the greatest of ease and used on all occasions. The round, angular and oval shapes are a standing invitation to try out new, whimsical combinations.

A symphony of beautiful shapes

In combination with the round elements, the angular shapes in the Fine Dining edition open up highly expressive fields of contrast. The special charm resides in the charming combination of strictly geometric plates and delicately curving hollow parts.

The pronounced handles add a sensory touch to the gracefulness of the shapes. The claim of multifunctionality is lived up to right down to the finest detail. This means that the cups fit on both the round and square saucers beneath.

The discovery of clarity

A delicate thin body, a clear, timeless shape – this would be one way to describe the personality of this classic. The very first time you catch sight of it, the delicate handles and the generous
rims attract your attention. They provide a respectful setting for the magical moment of presenting the finest cuisine. An aesthetic language which made even the original Fine Dining collection strikingly different. The supreme design is synonymous with consistent elegance – without a hint of arrogance. A homage to sophisticated dining culture and hospitality set in a perfect ambience.

Premiere, by concentrating on a puristic design and utilising the possibility of combining modern materials like porcelain, glass and stainless steel, is the answer to the needs / demands of table-top culture of the present day.

The new form’s raised borderline creates a unique depth and dimension to food presentation. A stage for any cuisine. You can also combine the smooth white articles with plates with a borderline accentuated by a delicately refined graphic relief.

Excitement is created by the interplay of the porcelain pieces that make the presentation of food into a fascinating feast for the eye. Thus each culinary presentation is given an individual touch: at times full of suspense, at times humorous, sometimes surprising and sometimes restrained – and always creative.

A plate is a plate and will always be a plate. This may be true, but the creative touches added by the renowned designer Carsten Gollnick turn it into a stage for culinary visions. Signature enhances our eating customs and visual expectations and invites us to experience cuisine in entirely new dimensions, with ingenious creations that cater for novel, imaginative culinary trends. The design touches are not just for design’s sake, but have been crafted to cater for the specific demands of modern gastronomy. SIGNATURE is a form of porcelain that appreciates how to set trends – delighting in experimentation.

SIGNATURE simply offers a novel interpretation of traditional shapes and gives them unusual roles.
Bowls are transformed into a spoon with sweeping curves that serves as a saucière, bowl for starters or dessert plate. Plates no longer have the usual round shape and set new trends with soft oval lines or take on a rectangular form with inviting separate terraced sections. Even if the imagination is still running wild – the design remains clear and never comes across as playful.

CHARACTER’s clean-lined design looks equally good on a classically formal or a trendily modern table – no matter whether only the textured plates are used, or whether the collection is used to complement existing smooth-surfaced services. The range comprises flat and deep plates, salad bowls, platters and many different sizes of cups. The generous proportions offer plenty of scope for food presentation.
