About Laurent Charles

For the everyday and the occasion.

Considered trays and hosting accessories for shared tables and everyday occasions.

Laurent Charles everyday setting; selected tray with styling objects, sold separately

A table does not need to be elaborate to feel welcoming. A few well-placed objects can give a meal its rhythm: a tray that brings cups together, a clear space for shared dishes, and enough room for everyone to settle in. Laurent Charles is a collection built around those small decisions.

We look at the table as a working surface as well as a place to gather. The shape of a tray changes how it sits between plates. A raised edge gives loose objects a boundary. A low profile lets a serving piece remain part of the conversation without taking over the room. These ordinary details matter more to us than a formal rule for entertaining.

A PLACE AT THE TABLE

Good company. Room to linger.

A table does not need to be elaborate to feel welcoming. A few well-placed objects can give a meal its rhythm: a tray that brings cups together, a clear space for shared dishes, and enough room for everyone to settle in. Laurent Charles is a collection built around those small decisions.

CHOOSING THE SHAPE

Follow the space you have.

Begin with the surface, then choose the object. A round tray creates a compact center for cups or small dishes. An oval shape gives an arrangement a direction and fits along a narrower table. A half-moon outline brings a straight edge alongside a curved one, making a different relationship with the objects around it.

Measure the clear area after place settings are laid out. Leave room to lift the tray and for people to reach their glasses. Product dimensions describe the object itself; they do not replace checking the usable space on your table. A considered arrangement should be easy to move and comfortable to use.

THE EVERYDAY OCCASION

Set a table you want to use.

A quiet breakfast and an evening with friends ask different things of the same room. We prefer pieces with a clear job that can move between those occasions. Bring the cups together before guests arrive. Keep a small arrangement contained on a sideboard. Clear the center when the food is ready.

Laurent Charles is a retail collection, not a claim that every object is made by us. We describe the selected item and its materials individually, and distinguish the piece being offered from the dishes, flowers or other objects used in a photograph. The table belongs to you; the arrangement should follow your own habits.
