Margherita’s dining room
Margherita’s dining room at her home in Italy is an invitation to long dinners and festive events. The same mood is captured in Svenskt Tenn’s dining room this summer, where we set the table with a festive colour palette, Murano glass, Italian porcelain, and an abundance of flowers.
The summery porcelain that Margherita designed for Svenskt Tenn is handcrafted by Ceramica Pinto in Vietri Sul Mare, Italy. Together with the colourful drinking glasses from Murano, they represent Italian craftsmanship at its very best. For each place setting, we have combined the Italian craftsmanship with Svenskt Tenn’s classic placemats and linen napkins and the Bistro cutlery series in a summery, shade of blue.
Margherita Maccapani Missoni“Josef Frank’s designs appeal to me – as well as the philosophy that everything fits together – no matter if it is old or new, has different styles, colours and patterns.”
Placemats by Josef Frank
In her dining room back home in Italy, Margherita has a whole dresser full of placemats in various Josef Frank-designs.

A carafe can also be a vase. Get inspired by Margherita and use both carafes and glasses for the summer bouquets.
Josef Frank's Chair 1165 is distinguished by its airy lightness and neat design. The six curved rattan bends in the back give the form a rhythmic and open character, and softly conclude the vertical lines of the back spindles. The chair was designed by Josef Frank for Svenskt Tenn in 1947.
The table setting is accompanied by modern interior accessories such as the Rök (Smoke) carafe by Frida Fjellman, designed in 2022; the Fina Snäckan (Fine Shell) dish by Åsa Jungnelius, designed in 2014; and the Serpentin (Serpentine) tablecloth by Natasia Wadsted for Svenskt Tenn.
Next to the dining table is Josef Frank's classic tea trolley 691, designed in the late 1930s. A tea trolley works perfectly as a side table and in the dining room for extra serving platters, glasses, and porcelain.
