Stylish, Australian Designed Tableware
The Collins dictionary defines the word Ecology as "the study of the relationships between plants, animals, people, and their environment, and the balances between these relationships." The word also originates from "Oikos" in Greek, meaning home or place to live.
A suitable name for a homeware brand, Ecology has gained a reputation in Australia for producing beautiful, fashion-forward tableware inspired by nature. It is no wonder that they continue to grace the lifestyle magazine pages of House & Garden, Home Beautiful and Gourmet Traveller.
Proudly designed locally in Rowville, Victoria, Ecology is a perfect choice for those who favour casual dinner sets which feature natural shapes and earthy tones. Apart from being an Australian brand, we also love that they are great for everyday use and are all microwave and dishwasher safe.
Below is our list of favourite dinner sets Ecology has made in 2019.
Soft Greens | Ecology Arc Aloe
With its hypnotic circular patterns and eye-pleasing soft dark and light green tones, this set features a beautiful matte glaze and combines wonderfully with the matching Indigo blue from the same collection below.
Cool Blues | Ecology Arc Indigo
Featuring the same circular pattern as the Aloe green set above, the deep and soft blues are reminiscent of the ocean, providing a nice cooling feel and its matte finish would combine beautifully with any polished silverware.
Textured White | Ecology Speckle Milk
The Speckle collection has been one of the most popular dinner sets chosen by Everten's customers. Featuring organic and asymmetric shapes, it brings a nice rustic feel and contrasts beautifully with the glossy milk-white tone. This set is also available in Duck-egg and Oatmeal tones which can also be mixed and matched to further personalise your table. For under $100, this stylish set not only looks great but is a bargain too!
Classic Restaurant Style | Ecology Bistro White
White is the most common colour choice when it comes to dinner sets. It's clean, it highlights the vibrant colours of the food being served and essentially matches any style of table or decor. As the name suggests, the Bistro dinner set by Ecology has a design which would look right at home in any casual Parisian cafe. Made from porcelain, its glossy white finish combines tastefully with the thin black rims which we think are a really nice touch and add some character to this set.
Night Skies | Ecology Stellar
We love the intriguing flowing speckled pattern which features deep indigo blue spots that expand out into cloudy, more pale hues. Again the reactive glaze adds a striking texture which expands out to the organically shaped rims which feature a contrasting soft matte cream coloured finish. This collection looks as though it was produced in an artisanal workshop, something which you'd find in an art market being sold by the very craftsman who made it. The soft colours bring an air of calm to any dinner table and would satisfy any admirer of stoneware.
While we have been selling Ecology tableware for a number of years and surround ourselves with new kitchenware on a daily basis, we still find excitement with every collection that the company releases. We admire that their designers are able to find a balance of keeping up with contemporary design trends while being able to retain a casual feel for everyday use.
One thing we can attest to (and evident by our customers' reviews) is that Ecology produces quality tableware at a very affordable price point. The only difficult decision to make is which style or combination to purchase!
