FREE - like a good friend
The Thomas Series FREE is like a good friend: flexible, reliable and resilient. The high-quality porcelain made in Germany knows how to impress and decorates the festive table just as skilfully as the morning breakfast table. No wonder, as the timeless design of this everyday companion unquestioningly combines a soft silhouette/shaping with clear functionality. The articles in this porcelain series are deliberately designed with thick walls and are therefore specially designed for everyday use. This makes FREE effortlessly meet high demands on durability and design. The solid porcelain is reminiscent of contemporary ceramic shapes, but, at the same time, its flowing lines give it a modern, fresh look.
NEW: Sunny Day Avocado Green
The Sunny Day collection is keen on green in 2021. With the new colour Avocado Green we celebrate the health trend and raise the superfood to the Olympus of table culture. You will certainly not get enough of this calm colour and by mixing it with other contrasting shades from the Sunny Day collection, Avocado Green is at its best. As usual, the decor is dishwasher and microwave safe.
Refined combinations
Whether soft or rich in contrast: the subtle Avocacdo Green demonstrates combination talent and is particularly inspiring with other muted colours. As always, there are no limits to the imagination and the combination possibilities!
NEW: Thomas Clay – Earth, Sky & Rock
The new Thomas collection Clay radiates a rustic sensuality. Available in three different colour variations, Thomas Clay captivates with its functionality and the naturalness of the stoneware material, which looks like clay. The grooved structure and the black speckles in the material give the plates and cups an authentic character in a handmade look. The reason for the speckles are small iron inclusions that melt up during firing and thus give the ceramic this special touch. The Earth, Sky and Rock shades bring a sense of closeness to nature to the table in a trend-conscious and stylish way - whether tone on tone or individually combined.
Color update for Loft - discover Loft Colour!
A timeless and beautiful design form that looks good every day and in all situations - this is the secret of Loft’s success. The series, developed by the British design studio Queensberry Hunt, has already been on the market for 20 years and there is no end in sight to its success story.
The Scandinavian-inspired glaze colours “Moon Grey”, “Ice Blue” and “Night Blue” give a fresh naturalness to the modern shape and can be perfectly combined with Loft White.
Hello, Nature!
Thomas Nature unites functionality and authenticity. The rustic yet high-quality stoneware material lends plates and cups a genuine character with a hand-made look. All Thomas Nature items are hand glazed and due to this technique they have an individual appearance.
New colour: Coral
Complementing the three existing soft colours "Sand", "Water" and "Leaf", the new colour "Coral" brings liveliness to the table. The bright yet soft shade of red catches everyone's eye and harmonises well with the other colours of the collection.
Another colour update: Trend Colour Moss Green
With Trend Colour, Thomas adds coloured accents, inspired by the nature of the North. The specially developed coloured glazes give the collection a fresh and unmistakable look that integrates perfectly into your own home – no matter whether you prefer Scandi chic or the hygge style.
The success of Trend Colour will be continued in 2021 with the shade “Moss Green“. The soft shade of green is reminiscent of a relaxing walk in Nordic forests, quiet footsteps on a soft moss floor, surrounded by fresh, tangy forest air. "Moss Green" thus wonderfully complements Trend Colour's palette of shades inspired by the nature of the North: The colour "Ice Blue", for example, lets the fine grooved structure shine in the bold turquoise blue of the Arctic. "Night Blue" casually heralds in the “blue hour” and "Moon Grey" creates a warm, welcoming end to the day, bathed in the moonlight.

The Thomas Brand Essence
Fun with cooking, food, drink and giving is the Thomas motto. Therefore, the range offers a wide choice of original products, thought of “outside the box” and with a twinkle in the eye.
Thomas is the brand for design-oriented and uncomplicated crockery for everyday use. The products are deliberately functional, plain and versatile. With its differently oriented product ranges Thomas covers a wide range, with a solution at hand for every taste and customer requirement.
Classics such as “Trend” that have lasted decades, demonstrate the soundness of the brand and prove the high quality standards of the products. In order to fully respond to the needs of its customers, Thomas trend-consciously incorporates new themes and materials into the range, in this way developing into a brand that combines functionality with lifestyle.
The Thomas clientele is notably heterogeneous: it appeals just as much to the young profession as to the elder lady, who when adding to her coffee set, buys additional Thomas products for her children and grandchildren.
