Pantone inspired tableware brings one of the most powerful forces in design directly to the dining table. Furthermore, each year Pantone announces its Colour of the Year, a single shade that sets the tone for fashion, interiors, product design, and beyond. Moreover, when Pantone named Radiant Orchid as the colour of 2014, MyGlassStudio responded with a new dinnerware collection that translated this bold, luminous purple-pink into handmade glass tableware for the hospitality industry.
Radiant Orchid. Pantone’s Colour of 2014
Towards the end of each year, the design world turns its attention to Pantone’s annual colour announcement. Furthermore, the choice shapes trend forecasts across every creative industry, from runway collections to interior palettes to tabletop design. Moreover, Radiant Orchid stood out as an unusually expressive choice. It sits between pink, purple, and fuchsia, carrying warmth and vibrancy in equal measure. As Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute, described it. Radiant Orchid reaches across the colour wheel to intrigue the eye and spark the imagination.

Colour Trends and Craft. A Contemporary Approach
Being contemporary in design is a deliberate skill. Furthermore, following a colour trend without losing craft quality separates lasting design from passing novelty. Moreover, MyGlassStudio chose Radiant Orchid for its unique position on the colour spectrum. At once romantic, modern, and theatrical, it made the ideal basis for color trend tableware that feels considered rather than reactive.
Radiant Orchid Tableware. Cake Stands, Dessert Plates and Platters
The Radiant Orchid collection from MyGlassStudio centres on elevated presentation pieces for pastry and dessert service. Furthermore, the pink and purple undertones of Radiant Orchid pair naturally with sweet courses. They create harmony between the tableware colour and the cakes, macarons, and pastries presented on them. Moreover, the elevated forms, cake stands, dessert platters, and presentation plates, make every dessert service feel like a moment.
