Here we are in May and let’s hope we can all enjoy some sunshine and alfresco cooking and dining this month. To get you in the mood, whatever the weather, we’ve picked our favourite tableware, serveware, cookware and more to give your kitchen or showroom an extra lift.

PROCOOK’S SS26 TABLETOP COLLECTION IS PERFECT FOR RELAXED DINING

ProCook has launched a gorgeous new tabletop range for spring/summer. Designed to bring a relaxed, layered look to home dining, it brings together ceramics, linens, wooden serveware and tableware with new textures, materials and colourways that mix effortlessly together. Built around a palette of soft blues, greens and colourful neutrals balanced with warm natural materials, the collection reflects the way the table sits at the centre of everyday life. Designed to be mixed and layered, the pieces are made to be used often for relaxed meals, shared dishes and moments that unfold naturally around the table.

Three new ceramic dinnerware ranges take centre stage for a versatile table setting. Amalfi stoneware features soft blue tones and a reactive glaze finish that gives each piece a subtle handcrafted character. The range includes a 12-piece dinnerware set alongside individual plates, bowls and serveware.

Boston dinnerware offers a contemporary alternative, pairing an off-white base with a terracotta-lifted rim for gentle contrast. The understated palette and softly contoured shapes create a simple backdrop designed to let food be the main event.

Completing the ceramic offer is the Porto reactive glaze serveware collection, crafted in Portugal. The line introduces four new pieces in a fresh green tone, including a serving dish, water jug, serving plate and dip bowl, designed to add subtle colour and variation.

Textiles play an important role in bringing the collection together. Striped linens and gingham ruffle tablecloths introduce pattern and colour, offering an easy way to layer a table and shift the mood from everyday dining to relaxed entertaining. Natural materials continue with Ash Wood serveware, which includes bowls, trays and chopping boards crafted from ash wood and finished with pastel-dipped bases and handles in soft green, pink and blue. Ribbed wooden salt and pepper mills, shakers and serving utensils extend the tactile, material-led aesthetic across the table.

GREENPAN BLENDS SUSTAINABILITY WITH PERFORMANCE IN NEW EVOLUTION COLLECTION

Made from 100% recycled aluminium, the Evolution collection from GreenPan champions sustainability without compromising on performance. Each pan features Thermolon™ PFAS-free ceramic non-stick coating, enhanced with diamonds for effortless food release and everyday durability.

Whether you’re searing salmon or sizzling veggies, the Evolution Collection delivers exceptional control and even heat. The extra-large Balance Pro hard-anodised base includes Magneto™ technology, ensuring the pan stays perfectly flat on every hob – gas, electric, ceramic or induction – and is oven safe up to 220°C.

Unlike ordinary induction pans that warp under uneven heat, the Magneto™ thick, copper-reinforced ferromagnetic layer guarantees stability, strength and smooth cooking every time.

With its sleek stainless steel handles and Scratch Guard™ technology, this cookware performs beautifully and is built to last. The rivetless, seamless interior means food and sauces glide out effortlessly, making clean-up a breeze (yes, it’s dishwasher safe, though a gentle hand-wash will keep it looking new for years).

Available in Black, Cream, Teal and Pine Green.

Spearmint is a light, uplifting, fresh mint-green shade with a distinctive sandy finish, designed to add subtle texture and tactility.
