Designer Francisca Prieto has created a stunning new addition to her range of contemporary accessories: The Bodoni Ornament Placemat and Coaster Set.

This exquisite set of concentric circles comprises a placemat, coaster and smaller coaster, so you can use as one unit or scatter separately onto your table. Interested in typography, Francisca experimented with ornaments of the font Bodoni to create the delicate designs. The graphics have been screen-printed onto the enamel and by firing the piece at 830^oC the design becomes embedded. The result is a surface that is incredibly hardwearing, with exceptional colour stability.

Ideal for interior and exterior settings or perfect as a heat resistant protector for your table, they are a great gift idea for anyone passionate about unique, exclusive and decorative design classics.

The name Proleno is synonymous with exclusive, stainless steel accessories to enhance the kitchen, bar and bathroom.

Sharp on style, the Stiletto family is the product of the in-house design team at Zack, the renowned German designers, who work on developing unusual design into impressive new collections. These covetable caskets are a great way to store and display your fruit with minimal fuss. The stainless steel finish is unobtrusive to any kitchen colour scheme and the simple stiletto design allows fruit the space to breathe, keeping it fresher for longer.

The Stiletto fruit bowl and basket are part of the new generation kitchen accessories – strongly design led, visually appealing and exceptionally practical.
