Welcome to the largest July/August issue of Tableware International… ever! We’ve got a very busy magazine for you with everything from show previews to interviews with key industry faces.
Firstly, our cover story is given over to Wilmax. A fantastically innovative company who offer an incredible array of product – the brand has most recently moved into providing furniture for the hospitality sector. You can read about Wilmax’s foray into furniture in our news pages but first turn to page 32 to explore some of their inventive cutlery collections.
Turn to page 38 to explore LSA International’s new collection while we catch up with LAV on page 44. On page 54, you can read our interview with Martyn Lewis of Lewis Wark. Interestingly, Martyn says: “I have been in the business for 37 years and I have never experienced anything quite like the current climate.”
Meanwhile, Gabi Schupp, director dining & lifestyle, Villeroy & Boch, tells Tableware International how the company is celebrating a remarkable 275 years making tableware. Read more on page 76. If you open page 94, you can read our interview with another great German brand, Stölzle Lausitz where we take a closer look at some of their collections.
We also have show previews for Maison & Objet (pg 78), NY Now (pg 82) and Top Drawer (pg 84). And there is category coverage for metal (pg 36) and gift-ready tableware (pg46) too.
