The trend for enamel tableware has been quietly gathering steam in the background for a while now. No longer the preserve of camping sites, it has, like melamine before it, become deeply fashionable and, as it’s such a practical material, that’s no bad thing.

Perfect for an array of nibbles, these bowls will look great in any setting. There is a downside however, they’re not dishwasher proof. On the other hand, the pundits all complain that as parents, we don’t teach our children enough life skills … you see where I’m going with that don’t you?
