Villeroy & Boch Iconic La Boule Stacking Porcelain Dinnerware Set 7 Piece Black/White

Functionality paired with an iconic design piece ensures that every La Boule is not only an exciting eye-catcher on your table but also a striking interior design feature for the home.

This giftable tableware set for two includes two 620ml bowls, two 500ml shallow bowls, two universal plates and one serving platter. Made of premium porcelain, the stackable set is dishwasher-safe and microwave-safe for use in the modern home.

Deeply rooted in Villeroy & Boch's DNA, the ground-breaking La Boule made its debut in 1971 and has been featured as part of the collections at both the MoMa in New York City and the Musee des Arts Decoratif in Paris, France. After a recent modern update, La Boule was relaunched. It embodies design, modernity and quality, values that Villeroy & Boch has been synonymous with since 1748.

La Boule/La petite Boule won product design awards at the 2020 and 2024 Red Dot Awards.

Choose the perfect china All our china is made from clay and kiln-fired for durability. Except for pieces with special trims, everything is dishwasher-safe. Below are a few options to consider when choosing your perfect china.

• Earthenware Strong and practical, earthenware is often a little thicker than other ceramics, making it ideal for everyday use.
• Stoneware Fired at high temperatures, stoneware is very tough and heat-resistant. It comes in a number of different glaze finishes.
• Porcelain Affordable yet luxurious, porcelain is renowned for its translucency. Fired at high temperatures, porcelain has an extremely tough glazed surface, making it durable.
• Fine china The synthetic bone ash used in fine china makes it a more affordable alternative to bone china. Like bone china, it's strong, translucent and delicate, and creamier in colour.
• New bone china A type of porcelain with added calcium oxide to achieve a similar aesthetic as bone china, but without animal bone ash.
• Bone china White bone china is the strongest and most translucent ceramic. Though it looks delicate, it's tough enough for daily use and is usually dishwasher-safe. It contains at least 35% bone ash.
