Planning your Christmas menu and looking for something to add that wow factor to your food presentation? Look no further as Avantgarde by Tafelstern, combines functionality with pure aesthetics and may just be what you need. Tafelstern products are distributed exclusively in the UK by Artis.
Avantgarde is a collection of fine dining porcelain comprising multi-functional pieces which are perfect for showcasing a wide variety of food styles. At the cornerstone of the Avantgarde range are nine differently sized plates and bowls with broad, concave rims. The collection is augmented by a selection of plates, platters and soup bowls in teardrop and oval shapes. This variety of shapes creates just the right framework for chef’s culinary presentation. The elegant platters can either be used as classic serving dishes – or – they are equally well suited for plating up starters, main dishes or desserts. The differently shaped teardrop and oval pieces offer endless presentation opportunities, whilst the generous roundness of the deep plates and their distinctive rims provide inspiration for concentric food arrangements.
As with all with all Tafelstern porcelain collections, Avantgarde is made from premium quality porcelain fired at 1400ºC, which ensures a hard and impervious finish with a high resistance to cuts and scratches. It comes with a 5-year professional glaze warranty and a lifetime warranty against edge chipping on plates, bowls and oval dishes that carry a “rolled edge”.
Typical list prices for pieces in the range are as follows: £9.16 for the 27cm flat plate; £5.50 for the small tear-shaped bowl; £20.60 for the 39cm ellipse serving dish and £5.68 for the soup cup with handles.
