Vietri Campagna Collection Pasta Bowl
Please give our vendor up to two weeks to ship this product.
These hand-painted ceramic pasta bowls from Vietri’s flagship Campagna collection are a playful, heirloom-quality addition to any tabletop. Inspired by pastoral southern Italy, every unique piece features a whimsical hand-rendered animal motif. Choose between a horse, rooster, cow, pig, fish or bird, plus vibrant wildflowers or bright coastal algae native to the area. Serve pasta in Vietri’s Large Serving Bowl and dish it up in these mix-and-match, dishwasher-safe bowls. Terracotta, locally sourced from the Amalfi Coast, has been used for Italian ceramics for centuries: the first pieces were dried in the sun. Today, Vietri’s artisans make the Campagna line the same way ceramics have been made for 500 years, but instead of using the sun’s heat to set each piece, each one is fired in a kiln. Careful control of the kiln’s temperature influences each unique piece’s shape and glaze colors. The Campagna line’s cheeky name refers both to the line’s inspiration—“campagna” is Italian for “countryside”—and Vietri’s origins in Campania, a rural, coastal region of southern Italy.

Goyon Juniper Wood Le Thiers Pirou Folding knife with Leather Pouch and Box
The elegant design of the Goyon Chazeau “Thiers” folding knife was sourced from the region’s top knifemakers to best represent the long lineage of knifemaking in the city. Don’t underestimate the simple, classic shape, as it is designed as much for culinary pursuits as utility, evolving from the classic all-purpose knife carried by farmers and shepherds. With its long, slender blade, this pocket knife is a true do-it-all knife capable of everything from gathering herbs in the garden and trimming twine to opening mail, breaking down boxes, whittling or slicing sausage and cheese for lunch. The handmade knife features an ultra-tough Swedish 12c27 blade that will hold an edge for ages and sharpen up easily. The juniper wood handle packs a peppery aroma and terrific feel in the hand. The blade remains securely open with a stiff slipjoint spring, so there’s little risk of it closing during use.
Never to be caught without a knife, Matt Card, our creative director of recipe and products, has carried one of these for years—and even used it to prepare more than a few meals while on vacation. And the accompanying soft leather pouch will help keep it scratch free in your pocket or bag.
