Create a simple and elegant Scandinavian style Christmas table setting
1. Start with the basics
Picture a serene backdrop for your Christmas feast. The Scandinavian aesthetic is all things calming and cosy and it is only natural that your Christmas table setting should follow suit. Begin with a soft beige or delicately striped linen tablecloth, pair it with elegant, brushed steel cutlery, simple, understated drinking glasses and timeless tableware. This neutral base lays the groundwork for the festive decorations to shine without overwhelming the scene.
2. Layer your Christmas tableware
Elevate your Christmas table with a touch of Nordic inspired tableware. A patterned porcelain collection like Swedish Grace Winter adds a subtle charm to your table. Swedish Grace is a true design classic, produced by one of the oldest porcelain manufacturers in Europe, Rörstrand, the collection was named after the Swedish style era of the 1920s. Swedish Grace has appealed to design lovers for generations, both in Sweden and beyond. Whether this is to do with the quality, the designs or simply the desire to own a piece of Swedish design history, the collection continues to spark joy among the masses.
The delicate motifs of the Swedish Grace Winter collection evoke snowy landscapes and winter foliage without being overly thematic. What’s more, its understated elegance makes it versatile enough to use for the entire winter, blending both functionality and beauty.
Want to add whimsical charm without overwhelming the table setting with too many patterns? Mix the Winter collection with the simple white version for a cohesive look.
3. A festive Christmas centrepiece for your Scandinavian Christmas table setting
At the heart of your table, a centrepiece should anchor the atmosphere with simplicity and elegance. Complement the colours of your tableware with a carefully selected winter bouquet that echoes the season. Avoid overly vibrant blooms, instead choosing flowers that match the season (and incidentally the porcelain collection) so they will not look out of place on a festive Christmas table setting.
4. Light up the table with candles
No Scandinavian Christmas table is complete without the warm flicker of candlelight. Place candles across the table, varying their heights to add dimension and intrigue. Deep red candles bring another festive touch to table, while sleek steel candle holders provide a modern touch and subtly mirror the cutlery.
5. Add natural elements
Bring the outdoors in to complete the Nordic aesthetic. Imagine a scattering of evergreen branches running the length of your table, accented with sprigs of eucalyptus. For a playful touch, intersperse bright red apples or clusters of winter berries—simple additions that exude warmth and life. These natural elements are a perfect complement to the clean lines of your tableware, adding depth and visual interest without clutter.
A memorable Christmas table setting doesn’t need to be extravagant. Blend practicality with simplicity, reflecting your style and the season’s joy. With soft candlelight, natural touches, and Scandinavian elegance, your table will set the stage for cherished festive moments.
