Piet boon
Minimalist tableware built around balance and function
Piet Boon brings his architectural approach to the table: clean lines, balanced proportions and a focus on function without visual noise. His collaboration with Serax centres on BASE, a complete tableware concept with fine bone china plates, matching glassware and minimalist cutlery. The result is a calm, refined collection that works as a blank canvas for every meal — from everyday dining to a more considered table setting.
BASE: a clean foundation for every table
The BASE collection is designed around one strong idea: tableware should support the food, not compete with it. The fine bone china has a crisp, white look and rounded shapes that feel timeless rather than trend-led. Matte and glossy finishes can be combined for subtle contrast, while the overall look stays quiet, balanced and easy to use every day.
Glassware and cutlery with the same visual discipline
The collection goes beyond plates and bowls. BASE glassware follows the same rounded design language, with mouth-blown shapes for water, wine and champagne. The cutlery keeps the same restraint: clean, minimal and precise in the hand. Combine BASE plates, with the glasses and cutlery when you want one coherent table setting without mixing too many styles.
How to build a Piet Boon table
Start with the pieces you use most: dinner plates, bowls and glasses. Add serving pieces if you often share dishes at the table, and complete the setting with cutlery that keeps the look clean. Piet Boon tableware works best when the table feels calm, structured and practical — with the food as the main focus.
