Grand Tour

Even the simplest dinner of basic dishes can escape a privileged status if your table features L’Objet Grand Tour plates with their multilayered, vibrant decor and 24k hand-painted gold. Collections like this always become a visual dominant the moment they enter your field of vision; it’s impossible to look away, and the visual perception magically enhances the enjoyment of your taste buds for the food served on such plates. We present Grand Tour — a true pearl of the luxury dinnerware segment from a renowned creative house, which can become a valuable decorative tool for your table.

The Magic of the Grand Tour Collection by L’Objet

The vibe of the Grand Tour collection by L’Objet is far from straightforward; it feels like a complex monograph written on fine porcelain with vivid, unique colors. It blends nostalgia for the Age of Enlightenment, the aesthetic of quiet luxury with a hint of adventure, the restrained nobility of modern European interiors, and the emotional depth of craftsmanship into one unified flow.

L’Objet studio is a master of technological perfectionism and an active promoter of using substantial amounts of gold in tableware products. Here, the manufactory also stays true to its traditions. The main material of the collection is high-quality Portuguese porcelain, known for its strength and its delicate, translucent texture. On this elegant china, artisans create complex patterns using the "pietra dura" technique (Florentine mosaic) that imitates stone inlay, and they hand-apply 24k gold painting, thereby creating a unique color combination of mineral pigments — ochre, cobalt, and cinnabar — and metallic contouring. 

The visual richness of every Grand Tour L’Objet plate or cup comes from a multilayer decal technique that carefully recreates detailed botanical and architectural patterns. The design shows stylized flowers and long botanical shapes arranged in a balanced way. The lines are soft and slightly blurred, so the pattern almost melts into the background and gives the feeling of something hand-painted and artistic. This kind of décor works perfectly for people who enjoy small variations in details.

What Grand Tour Is Suitable For

The beautiful, rich, and refined Grand Tour collection opens up many possibilities for developing a wide range of table settings, from uncomplicated arrangements to more creative compositions. Try playing around with these plates for your garden table or any spring and summer setups. 

They look great in botanical or vintage-style settings, and they’re a perfect match for French country or soft Neoclassic dinners if you're into that botanical look. It pairs well with plain base porcelain, especially in situations when the table setting includes an extensive list of dishes. We recommend complementing the Grand Tour line with substantial flatware in gold-toned metal and elegant hand-blown crystal glassware.
