Ttyokzk Poire (Pear) Sugar Jar
Handmade in small batches, this porcelain and wood pear-shaped sugar pot is made in Japan by ceramic designer Tatsuya Okazaki. Designed to store sugar, spices or salt on your kitchen counter or on the table, it has a “stem” that looks like a lid handle but is actually a built-in wooden spoon. The spoon handle fits through the center of the lid for easy scooping. Available in two colors in limited quantities, each pot is slightly different due to its handmade nature.
Breka Bread Box with Removable Lid in European Walnut
Please allow 3-5 business days for this item to ship
sMade from stunning European hardwood by a family-run company in Slovenia, this clever Bread Box takes up little space on the counter and keeps your loaf fresher for longer. Designed to fend off moisture and pests, bread boxes are one of the best ways to make a loaf last, but they’re often a bulky eyesore in the kitchen. Breka’s, however, is equipped with a fold-down removable lid that doubles as a cutting board, which has deep grooves to catch crumbs and makes serving easy. Its well-designed construction is as useful as it is beautiful.
JIA Inc. Kkini Bowl & Chopsticks — Set of 2
Inspired by Korean stoneware dolsot bowls, traditionally used for bibimbap, these warmly colored, matte-grey porcelain bowls are just the right size for a bowl of rice, miso soup or even late-night ice cream. The snugly fitting bamboo cover keeps food warm and prevents spills during transport, as well as providing elegant visual contrast. We especially love how the lid’s simple handle serves double duty a chopstick rest when placed on the table (it’s considered rude in Chinese culture to stick chopsticks upright into your bowl). The Kkini bowls and chopstick set are produced by JIA, an importer of fine Chinese ceramics and tableware. The company, whose name means “home”, works with international designers to put a modern spin on classic Chinese designs. Try this set for your next dinner for two, with dishes like our Taiwanese Five-Spice Pork with Rice or Chicken Teriyaki Donburi.
Atelier Miyabi Tenugui — Set of 2
Nearly ubiquitous in Japanese households, tenugui are decorated, all-purpose cloths analogous to the western bandana. They can be used for everything from washcloths, dishtowels and oven mitts to food storage–perfect as an all-in-one sandwich wrapper and napkin. You can even use tenugui as wrapping paper, a head wrap or handkerchief. Consider them a sustainable alternative to reaching for paper towels to clean up a spill or wrapping up leftovers instead of plastic wrap. And these ones from Atelier Miyabi are 100% cotton, so they dry quick and soften with every wash. Set of two available in blue or red.
Vietri Campagna Collection Salad Plate
These hand-painted ceramic salad plates 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; mix and match these dishwasher-safe plates to add extra style to your table setting. 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. 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.

Casablanca Market Moroccan Tea Glasses — Set of 6
Tea is ingrained in Moroccan culture, and this set of six tea glasses offers an exquisite link to it. Each is intricately hand-painted with a matte-gold design, and the jewel tone colors at the bottom of each glass helps distinguish glasses among guests or family members. While intended to serve traditional Moroccan tea—the most typical is a mixture of Chinese green tea, mint and sugar—these glasses can also be used as candle holders or decorative centerpieces. Each glass holds 8 ounces of liquid. Casablanca Market, one of our favorite producers of Moroccan condiments, spices and cookware, is an eco-conscious company, using recyclable materials and employing sustainable practices whenever possible. And they strive to provide financial security for the craftspeople who create their wares, helping to preserve and secure their artistic and culinary heritage.

Vietri Campagna Collection Olive Oil Bowl
Complete your Vietri tabletop with this sweet, petite bowl: It’s designed for serving olive oil or your favorite dip. Inspired by pastoral southern Italy, every unique ceramic piece from Vietri’s flagship Campagna collection features a playful hand-rendered painting of a horse, rooster, cow, pig, fish or bird, plus vibrant wildflowers or bright coastal algae native to the area. 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.
Verve Culture Handblown Glass Carafe
Mexican Terra Cotta Small Sauce Bowl — Set of 2
These clay bowls from Hidalgo, Mexico, are made from traditional terra cotta that has a beautiful rustic look. Each piece is handcrafted by specialized artisans, who use local clay and hand-polish the dishes using volcanic rock. With a capacity of roughly 2 ounces, they're not only great for serving sauces and dressings but also useful in the kitchen when measuring out ingredients during prep work. We like to take advantage of the microwave-safe material to melt butter for recipes. Keep a bowl handy near the stove for a pinch of salt while you're cooking, or keep your set at the table as a neat alternative to salt and pepper shakers. Not only will they add an attractive, authentic touch to your table, the cazuelas are also certified food-safe, whereas many other brands of clay cookware are made with lead.
Ttyokzk Pomme (Apple) Sugar Jar
Handmade in small batches, this porcelain and wood apple-shaped sugar pot is made in Japan by ceramic designer Tatsuya Okazaki. Designed to store sugar, spices or salt on your kitchen counter or on the table, it has a “stem” that looks like a lid handle but is actually a built-in wooden spoon. The spoon handle fits through the center of the lid for easy scooping. Available in three colors in limited quantities, each pot is slightly different due to its handmade nature.
De La Cal Ceramics Deviled Egg Tray
Like all ceramics from the De La Cal family, these vibrantly colored ceramic egg trays are hand-shaped, slowly dried under the sun, fired and glazed. Finally, each one is hand-painted by one of five artisans near Toledo, Spain, in the striking Talavera style and glazed once more. With space for a dozen deviled eggs and a wide center spot for snacks or dip, these one-of-a-kind trays make a decorative centerpiece while entertaining. And we love how this natural clay tray comes signed by its painter, adding a personal touch.
Kinto Cast Amber Iced Tea Glass
It's hard to find glassware that is both sturdy and delicate. We like the simple, appealing design of Kinto's iced tea glasses, which are heat-resistant and sturdier than traditional glass. The subtle lip on the rims of the glasses emphasize their sleek tapered shape and also make for easier drinking. Established in 1972 in Shiga, Japan, Kinto incorporates Japanese principles of simplicity and subtle elegance into its tableware designs.
Poterie Renault Bonny Vintage Butter Pot —Set of 2
Though the region is best known for wine production, the Loire Valley of France also once contained a secret gem frozen in time: Poterie Renault. Dating back to 1847, the French pottery workshop was filled to the brim with stoneware pieces, all handcrafted from some of the richest and finest clay France has to offer. And while the factory shuttered its doors in 2016, it left behind a treasure trove of salt-glazed ceramics that have become collectible items. Included in that collection, reminiscent of charming French country kitchens, these stunning butter pots, perfect for serving smooth, spreadable butter while entertaining. This is a set of 2 butter pots.
