Ikea introduces a meatball dish, seamlessly merging aesthetic appeal and practicality
Ikea, the beloved furniture and homeware retailer, is set to launch a new porcelain serving plate for Swedish meatballs, as part of their upcoming collaboration with Swedish designer Gustaf Westman. This playful addition to the Ikea family is more than just a plate; it's an ode to traditional Swedish meatballs, often served with mashed potatoes and lingonberry jam.
The plate, with its simple yet visually appealing design, is reminiscent of a small throne for each meatball. According to Westman, the designer behind the collection, the plate is designed with a specific function in mind, reflecting his design philosophy.
Westman, known for his playful designs, has previously created items such as a hot dog tray. The upcoming Gustaf Westman x Ikea collection, available from September 9 on ikea.com, includes more than just the serving plate. The collection also features tableware and home objects, with rumours of a cinnamon bun-inspired chair making the rounds.
Ikea sells around 1 billion meatballs annually, making them an integral part of the Ikea experience. The new plate comes with a humorous instruction manual, ensuring proper consumption of meatballs in a step-by-step Ikea manner. Potential buyers can find more information on the collection on ikea.com.
Traditional Swedish meatballs, or köttbullar, are a Scandinavian staple. This new plate is not just versatile; it can accommodate various spherical snacks, not just meatballs. So whether you're a meatball enthusiast or enjoy other spherical treats, this plate is a must-have for your Ikea-inspired dining experience.
Embrace the fun and functionality of Gustaf Westman's design, and add a touch of playfulness to your Ikea dining experience. The Gustaf Westman x Ikea collection will be available starting from September 9.
