Maker & History
Smoked Plexiglass and tinted acrylic became staples of 1970s and early-1980s entertaining ware, reflecting the era’s enthusiasm for new plastics and Space Age interiors. Serving sets often combined transparent or smoked trays with glass bowls, creating a lightweight, graphic alternative to traditional metal or ceramic tableware.

Why we love it

Sourced by Catherine

I love the sculptural shape and the delicate shell-shaped spoons, which add such an elegant detail to the set. It has a real presence on the table while still feeling light and refined.
