What was new at the New York Tabletop Show? Plenty - HFN

Vietri's handformed and handpainted Sicilian Heads symbolize women's empowerment.
Opening day of the New York Tabletop Show had the look and feel of recent shows—a nod to the Tabletop Association, the group that now runs the event—and a sign that business post-COVID is still strong.
Sales have come down from their lofty 2021 peak, according to some vendors—while others maintained that their business remains on par or even ahead of last year—but all noted continued consumer interest in the tabletop category and said they were optimistic about the months ahead.
Gibson’s earth-toned dinnerware offers a sense of serenity and comfort.
David Zrike, whose eponymous company specializes in licensed products from brands such as Disney and Peter Rabbit, believes his company’s success is driven by consumer nostalgia for products that are like “comfort food,” while Vietri President Holli Draughn credited fast shipments, a strong in-stock position and excellent consumer service for her company’s success.
New floor configurations at 41 Madison Avenue reflected a change in the building’s status as a permanent showroom—as previously reported, several vendors relocated to smaller spaces on consolidated floors, but the building also welcomed a few newcomers, including Stone Lain, a three-year-old Canadian company making its Tabletop Show debut, and Jars, the longstanding French ceramic maker that now has its own U.S. division and its own showroom. Lenox, meanwhile, welcomed Cambridge Silversmiths, which it acquired in July, into the fold. The company had flatware from its Lenox, Oneida, Hampton Forge and Cambridge brands front and center in its showroom, an indication of its evolution from being primarily a dinnerware resource.
There was plenty of new product to go around. A few highlights:
