If you’re wading through mushrooms and FunHaus decor for something colourful yet mature, we’ve got something for you. In good time for spring, British lifestyle brand Oliver Bonas has released a bright and playful tableware collection that captures the feeling of a Mediterranean holiday. 

“We wanted to create a summertime tablescape to transport you to the Mediterranean, with shared snacking plates and kitchen accessories that incorporate colourful fresh produce designs,’ Anna Proctor, Senior Home & Gift Designer, explains.

The sun-kissed ensemble is available to shop online and in Oliver Bonas stores now.

‘In addition to our usual ceramic shapes, we have explored more experimental silhouettes, including a sculptural lemon option,’ Kate Butler, Head of Home & Gift Design, says.

Buon Appetito takes the motifs and culture of the Mediterranean and merges it with the functionality of the modern home. It includes ceramics, vases and glassware to complement Oliver Bonas’ wider homeware releases.

From energetic Ibiza markets to the restful Amalfi Coast, the collection is the best holidays transported to your home.

Expect hand-painted typography, whites, blues and natural terracotta, woodsy and citrusy tones..

Beyond the expected pieces, the Buon Appetito tapas range brings the fire with vibrant reds and oranges, inspired by the three stars of a holiday dining setting: tomatoes and peppers and the setting sun.

While the collection draws inspiration from various locations, it feels proudly Italian, the language brandished boldly on the designs.

Design is currently defined by escapism. Whether this is a good or bad thing is debatable but nobody can be negative about a short getaway from daily woes. 

2 of your 5 a day, the orange and lemon salt and pepper shakers feel cheeky without being childish. They would do nicely in an urban flat all year round for that taste of La Dolce Vita.
