The right style for table decorations

Find your perfect dining table decor

You can achieve the right style for your dining table decoration by coordinating the materials and colors with the existing room design. To add variety, decorate your table with materials such as ceramic, glass or linen. Large vases can also be integrated into table decorations, but place them at the end of the table! For weddings or anniversaries, where the theme is likely to be white, decorate your table with lavish bouquets of flowers.

Dining table decorations in a modern style

To decorate your dining table in a modern style, you can opt for a minimalist style, with matching candles from our Essential collection, which are available in contemporary colors such as green, pink and white. Combine them with simple table runners to complete your modern dining table decorations.

What is the best way to decorate a wooden table?

You can embellish your wooden tabletop with natural materials, and don't necessarily need a tablecloth for this. Linen or cotton napkins, decorative twigs, and the finest ceramic dinnerware will establish a natural-looking and rustic country house style at the dining table.

What decor should you choose for a round table?

Choose light-colored tablecloths to decorate a round dining table: these look elegant, and in keeping with the shape of the table. As round dining tables require a central decoration, place a bouquet of flowers in a pretty vase in the centre of the table – the Manufacture Collier Perle for example.



The right dining table decoration for every occasion

Match your dining table or kitchen table decorations to the occasion. For festivities such as birthdays, anniversaries or weddings, use gold or silver cutlery and elegant placemats in subtle colors. Your table decorations can also reflect the seasons. Opt for bright colors such as yellow and orange in summer, a rustic look in autumn, and Christmas spice and twigs in winter.

The blooming season

Dining table decorations for spring

Adorn your spring table with tulips, daffodils and other early blooming flowers. Complement your spring dining table decorations with placemats and candles in bright colors. The placemat from the Spring Fantasy collection or the elaborate Spring Awakening vases are also suitable.

How can I decorate my table for Christmas?

If you want to decorate your table for Christmas, you need natural accessories. Embellish your festive table with fir branches, nuts, cinnamon sticks and oranges and an Advent wreath. Decorative accessories such as the La Boule Toy's Delight, the Toy's Fantasy tapestry placemat or Christmas table decorations go well together.

What items belong on the dining table?

Elements for the perfect dining table decoration

The icing on the cake is a carefully coordinated dining room table decoration. When decorating a wooden table, make sure it is neither too minimalist nor too overloaded. Follow our tips for table decorations - complete the arrangement with hurricane lamps, fairy lights or table sprinkles such as hearts, stars and leaves to match the occasion. Selected elements of lighting are also suited to dining table decorations in black.

Choosing the right placemats and table runners

Placemats form the basis for atmospheric table decorations, and should be chosen in colors to match. You will find many table runners and placemats at Villeroy & Boch: with Christmas motifs as well as floral spring collections and subtle, solid-colored table runners.
