Stoneware tableware by Rosenthal: modern design in a handmade look

Due to their similar names, many people are unaware of the differences between earthenware and stoneware. The advantages of a high-quality tableware set made of stoneware are obvious. Stoneware tableware is characterised by its outstanding durability and lasting beauty.

In contrast, earthenware is made from coarser clay and fired at lower temperatures, resulting in a finish that is significantly softer and more porous than high-quality stoneware. This means that earthenware is more susceptible to scratches and breakage and can lose its flawless appearance more quickly. In addition, the porous surface is susceptible to water damage, which makes everyday use unnecessarily difficult.

With modern stoneware tableware sets, such problems do not arise: they are water-repellent, break-resistant and reliably withstand all the challenges of everyday use.

All pieces in the Bloom collection by Rosenthal are made from high-quality stoneware and impress with their handcrafted charm. This collection embodies the beauty of nature and combines it with typical Asian design elements. The highlight of the Bloom collection are the plates and bowls in abstract flower shapes, which are reminiscent of delicate calyxes and become an eye-catcher on any table. The other tableware pieces in the collection impress with their unique harmony of earthy colours and a slightly textured surface. This creates a particularly natural look despite the symmetrical round shape.

Rosenthal Bloom is available in three colour variations:

· Bloom Snow – The white glazed stoneware allows you to add light accents that blend harmoniously into all modern and nature-inspired table decorations.

· Bloom Lava – The deep black colour, inspired by volcanic landscapes, exudes elegance and strength.

· Bloom Scarlet – The irregularly applied dark red glaze on a light background adorns the tableware with a playful colour gradient and adds exciting accents.

The Junto collection from Rosenthal stands for design diversity at the highest level. It combines the special feel of stoneware with a unique design philosophy. Rosenthal Junto is characterised by the organic shapes of the various tableware items, which inspire with their special flair. Thanks to their unique shape and wide range of colours, they lend a playful charm to any table setting and are ideal for creative decorations.

The playful stoneware tableware is available in a variety of colours and offers the right look for all tastes. The collection's colour selection includes:

· Junto Alabaster – in subtle beige as practical tableware for all occasions.

· Junto Aquamarine – dark blue tones in a decorative marine look for stylish table settings that will delight design lovers.

· Junto Bronze – rich brown tones for luxurious decorations or autumnal designs.

· Juno Jungle – the light green on a neutral background adds colourful accents to everyday life and is ideal as seasonal tableware in summer or for Easter breakfast together.

· Junto Dune – inspired by light sand dunes, this tableware delights with soft earth tones that lend your home a natural warmth or, in combination with various shades of blue, a maritime charm.

Each variant brings a different mood to the table and can be creatively combined or staged as an eye-catcher – a true mix-and-match experience that reflects the zeitgeist of modern design lovers.

The world of tableware thrives on contrasts – and this is precisely where the extensive selection of Rosenthal tableware comes into its own. Combining stoneware tableware with classic Rosenthal porcelain opens up exciting possibilities that are equally suited to modern and traditional styles.

While the stoneware impresses with its matt surface, warm colours and handcrafted look, the porcelain captivates with its timeless elegance, fine transparency and exclusive decorations. Together, they create perfectly decorated table settings for all occasions.

Tip: Combine the organic shapes and colours of the stoneware with the brilliant white of the iconic Rosenthal Maria collection, or create striking contrasts by pairing it with opulent eye-catchers from the Rosenthal meets Versace collections.
