Set the table: Diwali edition

In this edition of Set the Table with Souk, our sister site has pulled together tableware and accents that add glow, charm, and a dash of indulgence—all the things that say Diwali with a big D. They've made you a list of stuff that is warm, layered, and full of personality, from gorgeous kansa dinnerware to sculptural urlis. 

01 Tehelka Runner & Placemat Set

This runner-and-placemat set brings old-world India to the dining

table—with elephants, florals, and bold pops of mustard, magenta, and teal. The chenille fabric is lush, warm and vibrant without being over the top. We love that it pairs beautifully with everything from ceramics to festive brass serveware.

02 Anvaya Kansa Thali Set

Kansa, an alloy of copper (78%) and tin (22%), has been used for centuries to craft both utensils and sculptures—and as a health hack by Ayurveda devotees. This six-piece set (thali, two bowls, tumbler, dessert bowl, and dessert spoon) with its delicate bel design is a classic—suited to everyday use and days when the house smells of incense and ghee lamps. 

03 Kansa Serving Bowls (Set of 3)

This serveware is also made from kansa. We appreciate the modern curves and subtle sheen that easily blends in with whatever else is on your table. So you can indulge your love for metal without going all-in on the traditional vibe. Then again, you could match them with the thalis above. They come in three handy sizes, useful for everything from desserts to dals and sides.
