GUZZINI

Features and types

The Guzzini catalogue available on L'Arcolaio is divided into seven product families, each designed for a different function — from cooking to table service, from pantry to outdoor.

Plates, trays and risotto dishes in melamine

The collections Blues, Flower & Lemon e Riviera cover all pieces of the service in melamine: a material resistant to impact, lightweight and suitable for both indoor use and in the garden or on the terrace. You'll find the flat plate, the soup plate, the dessert plate, the rectangular tray with handles and the risotto dish. Blues works with blue and white decorations; Flower & Lemon with floral motifs and warm colours; Riviera introduces green and white-blue. Among the most requested pieces is the Rectangular Tray Blues with Handles in melamine: handy for the buffet in the garden or for bringing courses to the table, with the Blues pattern coordinated with the rest of the service.

The Blues 24-piece Cutlery Set and the Flower & Lemon 24-piece Cutlery Service, in steel with decorated plastic handles, complete the table while maintaining the coordinated pattern of the line. For complementary solutions, glasses and table accessories from other brands are available in a dedicated section.

Containers and Chef Line utensils

The Chef Line is the family dedicated to active cooking. It includes skimming spoons and cake servers in mango yellow and avocado green colours, the Set of 4 Everywhere Containers with Lid for storing and transporting food, the Set of 3 Chef Line Jars to organise the pantry, the colander Ø 24.5 cm in white, the tall takeaway cake tin Ø 33 cm with lid and the Set of 6 Chef Line Aqua Bowls Ø 12 cm in coloured plastic — useful both for serving at the table and for kitchen preparations. The coloured utensils make the tools immediately visible in daily use. Pair this section with plates, glasses and table accessories to complete the arrangement.

Glasses: acrylic crystal and coloured glass

In the glasses section you'll find several models: the Beer Glass Vanity 590 ml in transparent acrylic crystal, the Short Glass Decoration 2 Vanity Bio-Based Ø 8.5 cm 360 cc in red, and the models in coloured glass such as theHappy Hour ground short 350 cc and the Bubbles short in blue. The short 350 ml format is versatile: it works well for water, white wine or an informal aperitif.

Bio-based trays — Vanity line

The Vanity line is made with bio-basedmaterial, aimed at reducing environmental impact. In the catalogue there is the Ø 30 cm container in caramel, the small round tray Ø 30 cm in water lily green and the large round tray Ø 36 cm. The green and caramel colours adapt to modern tables or with a natural style. For coherent table settings, the section cutlery and table accessories offers matching solutions.

Pots and cooking accessories

The Vivace Everyday line includes the set of 2 non-stick frying pans in Ø 24 and Ø 28 cm diameters for everyday use. The Set of 3 Multi-Cook Cooking Baskets, when available, completes the offer with accessories for multifunctional cooking. With 34 items in the pots category, the Guzzini catalogue covers this area of the kitchen with good depth.

Cake stands, cups and placemats

The Charlotte Cake/Appetiser Dish transparent serves both to present desserts and as an appetiser dish — a piece that works well both at breakfast and for a refined aperitif. The Coffee Pop Chef Line Coffee Cups in the peach variant are recognisable for their unusually vivid colour. The Double Face Fibre Placemats 43 × 30 cm — available in milk white and powder blue — and the Placemat Fabric series Placemats in black and amber close the range with simple and coordinating options.

How to choose Guzzini products

For outdoor dining, in the garden or on the terrace: choose the melamine from the Blues, Flower & Lemon or Riviera lines. It resists impact, doesn't chip, washes easily and is lightweight. Rectangular trays with handles are convenient for buffet service. Around an outdoor table, 90 cm of space between diners is the minimum recommended distance: flat trays from the Blues line can be brought to the table without taking up space.

To organise the kitchen: Chef Line is the reference point. Everywhere containers with lids and jars reduce clutter in the pantry. Coloured utensils (mango yellow, avocado green) are easy to find in the drawer. Pair it with the WD LifeStyle line if you're also looking for borosilicate glasses to match.

For a coordinated table: pair Blues or Flower & Lemon cutlery sets with plates from the same line. Add Fabric placemats to complete. For complementary crockery in porcelain or ceramic, the section Rose & Tulipani offers matching solutions for a mix of materials.

For those looking for sustainability: the Vanity bio-based line responds to those who want to reduce the impact of materials without sacrificing vivid colours. Water lily green and caramel are the shades available today in the catalogue.

For blades and cutting sets: Guzzini covers utensils and containers, but for specialist knives the section kitchen and table knives brings together other sector brands.

Frequently asked questions about Guzzini

What is the melamine used in Guzzini plates?

Melamine is a heat-resistant plastic used for plates, trays and containers. It is resistant to impact — it doesn't chip like ceramic — lightweight and suitable for outdoor use. It is not suitable for microwave or high-temperature dishwashing: always check the instructions on the individual product before use.

Are Guzzini Chef Line products dishwasher compatible?

Chef Line plastic utensils (skimming spoons, cake servers, bowls) are generally dishwasher safe. High temperatures, however, can accelerate colour wear over time. To keep the bright colours longer, hand washing remains preferable.

What does "bio-based" mean for the Vanity line?

It means that part of the materials comes from renewable sources of biological origin, rather than exclusively from petroleum derivatives. The precise detail of the bio-based percentage is reported on the individual product.

Are Guzzini cutlery sets suitable for everyday use?

The 24-piece sets (Blues and Flower & Lemon) are made from steel with decorated plastic handles. Steel guarantees durability over time; the coloured handles make them suitable for a lively table, both for everyday use and for informal occasions.
