And it is - finally, again - Christmas!
Christmas is synonymous with turmoil. A teeming of commitments and urgencies, of dinners and appointments that lead straight to Christmas Eve dinner with the family and, subsequently, to New Year's Eve's Eve party.
You will agree with us if we say that these are perhaps the only appointments where real attention is paid to the mise en place. In the hustle and bustle of everyday life we often settle for quick and easy solutions, but during the holidays it is customary to place special care in setting the table, with colors in palettes and decorations taken from nature.
Therefore,RGmania offers you some ideas that can help you not only present an elegant table setting but can also be inspiring as a gift for a special person at the most magical time of the year.
Christmas sets: gift ideas from RGmania
The table of the Christmas holidays
There's no use getting around it. Thinking about the china, the ironed tablecloth, the centerpiece, the sparkling colors, we all think 'It looks like my grandmother's table!' and yet that's exactly what we look for at Christmas: a table that tastes like home, warmth, memories and sharing.
December 24 and 25 bring back happy childhood memories. And it is in this spirit that we need to set the Christmas holiday table.
So RGmania has come up with special sets for you for elegant but also refined mise en place, Christmas gift ideas made of white porcelain plates, vintage style glasses and contemporary cutlery.
The first idea we propose is the set I Meravigliosi, a simple and tasteful table for four people, featuring plates decorated in Jungle style, smooth and elegant 100% Italian glasses signed Luigi Bormioli and very contemporary sandblasted cutlery.
We then came up with the Marilyn setfor six place settings, consisting of an underplate, a set of plates with honeycombed edges in a sober yet original style, with tumbler, flute and goblet with a decoration reminiscent of diamonds, and simple but striking cutlery to calibrate an emotionally charged Christmas holiday table.
The latest is the Alkemist set, a mise en place for six people that contemplates a water glass with a matching goblet that is also perfect for cocktails and aperitifs, special arabesque cutlery, glitter underplate and very simple plate set whose profile is edged with a decoration that appears as if it were a necklace.
Each of the Christmas table sets is named after the glasses inside, to emphasize RGmania's great passion (and extensive range) in glassware.
If you are then looking for just the right inspiration to finish off the table, we can suggest peeking among the sparkling wine glasses and buckets (you can't celebrate without uncorking great sparkling wine!), matching the mise en place with the best table linens, in the colors you prefer, and to convey a true Christmas atmosphere with spotlights well thought out.
Breakfast during the Christmas holidays
If you don't want to miss the warm atmosphere of the dinner the next morning, there is nothing better than taking the time for a good coffee, alone, with family, with friends ( hangover?) or with the famous guests who come to visit you just for the holidays. RGmania therefore offers you three different types of breakfasts: the silver breakfast, for the eccentric and lovers of bold tones; the gold breakfast, for those who love luxury and sparkling details; the Italian breakfast, with bright colors inspired by the tricolor.
