Frontgate Unveils First Exclusive Entertaining Collection with Chef Michael Symon

Inspired by Chef Symon's Greek-Sicilian heritage, and the laid-back elegance of the Symons' Venice bungalow, the collection captures the spirit of their everyday grill-to-table hosting style where bold flavors, beautiful design, and easy company unite.

"This collection embodies our love for the Mediterranean way of life; those slow meals, big tables, and abundance of fresh food we discovered during our travels in Italy and Greece," says Chef Symon. "As a longstanding Frontgate partner, this marks my first design collaboration with the brand. We crafted these pieces to feel ready for real life, infused with the inviting textures and vibrant colors that inspire us."

At its core, the collection reflects the Symons' belief that the best gatherings are the most relaxed—where food flows, the setting feels natural, and the pieces are equal parts effortless and elevated. With Michael as the grill master and Liz creating the setting, they designed a collection that feels special yet easygoing, made to move from grill to table. From hand-stamped Italian dinnerware to professional-grade serveware, each piece is rooted in both functionality and personal story.

The full collection features a range of carefully designed items, including:

• Elevated Serveware: Charcuterie boards, insulated bowls, and lazy Susans with modular snack servers designed for seamless transitions from prep to presentation.
• Artisanal Dinnerware: Crafted in Italy using a distinctive, old-world sponge-stamping technique, bringing unique Mediterranean motifs to the table.
• Sophisticated Barware: A perfected cocktail station with a luxe bar tool set, a signature burnished brass ice bucket, and a reimagined double-walled beverage tub for maximum cold retention.
• Kitchen & Dining Essentials: A professional-grade chef's apron with leather details, canvas bread cloths and boards for elegant presentations, and ribbed-glass oil & vinegar cruets and salt & pepper shakers that emphasize thoughtful design and utility.

The collection is infused with Chef Symon's favorite design materials like burnished brass-finished stainless steel, walnut-finished mango wood, and vibrant enamel finishes, reflecting the craftsmanship that defines Frontgate.

"Chef Symon has been a trusted voice in the kitchen and a valued partner to Frontgate for years, and we're thrilled to unveil our first co-designed gourmet collection with him," said Tom Bazzone, president of Frontgate. "This collaboration brings his unique culinary perspective directly into our designs, reflecting our shared passion for thoughtful products that not only elevate everyday living but also deliver professional-level performance"

The Frontgate x Chef Michael Symon Collection will be available exclusively in Frontgate stores and on Frontgate.com, with pricing ranging from $49-$399.
