Blevio, a table designed by Gardella in 1930 — a quintessential Italian design and part of the Heritage Molteni&C collection — dressed with precious gilded plates and glasses that appear sculpted and ready to host an Asian-inspired feast.

The second is Half a Square by Michael Anastassiades, which elevates the ‘after dinner’ moment with an evocative table that features a selection of cocktail glasses, creating a geometric composition illuminated by a delicate play of candles.

The third is Foster+Partners’ glass-topped oval Arc Table, which will tell a story of family togetherness in a rich but informal setting, where plates decorated in gold are combined with simple linen placemats.

And finally, Gio Ponti’s majestic D.859.1 table, enriched with a mise en place in which simplicity and refinement invite guests to enjoy the tranquility of the holidays.

To mark the season, some Molteni&C Flagship Stores will host a flower installation within a dining or kitchen setting alongside dedicated windows that celebrate different aspects of conviviality. The lavish floral arrangement, composed of dried flowers in warm seasonal colors, will be strikingly suspended above the table setting, animating each Flagship Store’s windows and imbuing the space with a warm and festive feeling.

This holiday season Molteni&C shares one of their best-kept secrets with you all, how to recreate an artfully decorated table at home that speaks to your own personal style.
