Wouldn’t it be great if we could all go back to a simpler time? That’s the question posed by today’s trend makers, who are leaning into our pastoral past for inspiration in home goods, foodservice and design.  

With organic elements pulled from both natural landscapes and rural living, trends like cottagecore and refined rustic bring the outdoors in and create a calming visual escape during our busy and tech-filled days. 

This year, Libbey is bringing this earthy, nostalgic look to tabletops with Modera, a new collection of oven-to-table porcelain serveware that puts the comfort in comfort food. 

Modera’s dark glaze mimics the lived-in look (and function) of your favorite cast-iron pan, conjuring memories of cooking dinner around the campfire or frying up some eggs for a family breakfast. 

The granite-like matte finish offers a natural accompaniment to other “outdoorsy” textures like wood or pottery that you may already have in your space. Its subtle rustic design details provide a sense of warmth and approachability, while speckles and flecks add inviting dimension and texture. 

Modera’s charms don’t end with its rustic, earthy good looks, however. These durable porcelain pieces are ready to work for you, oven-safe at up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit to serve up sizzling soups, entrees and appetizers. Matching lids help preserve heat from oven to table and allow you to stage memorable tableside reveals. 

With a large selection of sizes, Modera will inspire your culinary creativity, from baked desserts to shareable dips and roasted veggies. And like many items in our Libbey dinnerware selection, Modera is dishwasher and microwave safe, with a five-year no-chip guarantee. 

There is nothing as inviting as a warm, sizzling platter fresh out of the oven, drawing hungry looks from guests as it passes through the dining room. The Modera collection ensures those simple pleasures will happen again and again. 

Though this nostalgic cast-iron look is on trend today, Modera’s classic construction and versatile finish will be welcome at your table for years to come.
