Our Story

Hi there,

We're Daphné and Natacha. And we want to set your tables for surprises.

We both grew up in families where having guests over was part of our daily life. We remember setting large tables that would attract people from all generations and walks of life, continuously enriching moments with new stories and perspectives.

The best part of these memories, and having people over in general, is that it transports you to a space that’s about simple pleasures. It’s about being together. Connecting. Letting loose. Laughing. Savoring great food, drinks, and even better friends.

We started to imagine what our next tables would look like. Lots of colors, our favorite people around laughing and pouring wine into beautiful glasses to match the delicious food on the table. As we brainstormed, Daphné started drawing, and Denise's first designs were born.

Denise is named after a grandmother—one who passed down a love for beautifully set tables, shared meals, and the joy of bringing people together. It’s a universe that is both of the moment and entirely nostalgic, fueling rituals but defying codes, honoring traditions but defying expectations.

Denise encourages tables to be set for surprises—rarely predictable in the mix and match of plates, people, and on some occasions, prone to pivoting into a party.

We hope you enjoy our creations!

With love,

Daphné & Natacha
Founders of Denise
