A table is a collection of choices.

Hand-thrown ceramics, Florentine porcelain, glass shaped by flame, and candles made to last through dinner. Eight makers whose work we’d bring to the table, alongside our own linen.

@hal.projectt

Made by hand in Barcelona, one piece at a time. Ceramics shaped around clean geometry, tactile surfaces and the everyday rituals they’re made for.

@sabreparis

It began in 1993 with a single knife. Today, Sabre brings colour and a distinctive mix of materials to cutlery, giving even the most familiar part of the table a different look.

@astierdevillatte

Made by hand in Paris, Astier de Villatte’s ceramics are recognisable for their white glaze and dark clay body. Each piece has the marks of the process that made it.

@piaglassworks

Barcelona-based artist Pia works with flame-worked glass, building sculptural forms and vivid colours from a material that is both delicate and strong.

@gather.glass

In its Woolwich studio on the Thames, Gather makes hand-blown glassware with colour at the heart of the design. Pieces to use, handle and bring into everyday life.

@cartujadesevilla

Founded in Seville in 1841 by English entrepreneur Charles Pickman, La Cartuja brought English ceramic-making techniques to a former Carthusian monastery. A meeting of two traditions that became part of Spanish tableware history.

@pygmalionlondon

Hand-poured in London, Pygmalion’s unscented dinner candles burn for more than ten hours. Long enough for dinner, dessert and the conversation that follows.

@mydrap_europe

Our part of the table: linen napkins and placemats, cut individually from a roll, ready to set out whenever the table is.

Back in July, while filming The Glasshouse of London, I learned that among glassblowers, one of the most braggadocious flexes is to cook fish with 1,500 °C molten glass.

So we organised a whole supper around this delightfully dangerous ritual.

The Glasshouse of London.

A new short from @nationofartisans

Founded by Phoebe Stubbs in the depths of lockdown, Gather is an ode to "gathering" — a technical glassblowing term for the act of spinning molten glass onto a blowing iron and, of course, the communion of those meeting to enjoy the end product.

Phoebe is building something very special. I urge you all to explore her work and share it with others.

The tradition of making glass in London is almost entirely dead. Yet, hidden in deepest Woolwich, there is a factory bringing it back.

I spent two days filming Phoebe Stubbs, a master glassblower and founder of @gather.glass, a glasshouse sparking British glass renaissance.

Fusing traditional silhouettes from Dutch still life paintings, gummy-sweet colours, and a furnace named Boudica, Phoebe is a force of nature.

Check out the full film and interview.

Coming soon: I'm excited to share a new film coming out this week. 'The Glasshouse of London' explores the work of Phoebe Stubbs and her studio Gather in southeast London.

Phoebe's work is both deeply trad and very zany. My favourite are her Miami glasses which combines the silhouettes from her favourite Dutch masters painting combine with the bright colours of her favourite childhood sweets.

Follow to see it first!

What are those little glass squares set into the pavement?

They’re called pavement lights — and they have a fascinating history.

Welcome to OBJECTS, a new series exploring objects of exceptional heritage and innovation that have subtly changed the nature of the world.

For our inaugural post, Phoebe Stubbs (@phoebestubbs), the founder of Gather (@gather.glass) shares her passion for the genius behind the much-ignored pavement light.

The full piece is on the newsletter.

At House of Icon, one of the highlights is the fourth edition of You Can Sit With Us, the emerging designer showcase curated by 2LG Studio with a steer towards those who might otherwise struggle for a seat at the design table. Titled Messy Heart, the show explores the joy and creativity that can come out of imperfections. See tags for the featured designers…
