Serving bland food is no longer a social faux pas, thanks to Hermès’ new tableware collection, Hermès en Contrepoint. Thirty three stunning elements turn every meal into pure bliss.


Alice in Wonderland might as well pack up her lackluster cutlery and tumble down the rabbit hole once more, this time in sheer defeat, because Hermès has just redefined tableware with its jaw-dropping porcelain collection. Hermès en Contrepoint is a symphony of functionality and artistry, envisioned by the brilliant Nigel Peake. Half the pleasure of a meal lies in the visuals, and even before the first bite, this Hermès tableware elevates the dining experience.


The thirty-three porcelain elements, inspired by musical rhythms, create a sensory composition as intricate as a finely tuned melody. Each piece bursts with vivid colors, from the delicate cups to the lavish plates, orchestrating a visual crescendo on your table.

The cutlery is adorned with hand-painted watercolors in shades of pink, purple, blue, and green. The vessels are minimalistic and understated, except for the striking patterns and geometric forms, meticulously drawn freehand in watercolor by the acclaimed Irish architect, known for his sharp, expressive brushstrokes.


This playful collection refuses to conform to the rigidity of matching sets, embracing the art of effortless eclecticism. It lets you mix, match, and create a tablescape that is as vibrant and dynamic as your imagination. The pieces are available at Hermès boutiques and online. For those who see dining as an art form, Hermès en Contrepoint is more than tableware, it’s a ticket to hosting at its finest. Set the table, steal the show.
