GINORI 1735
GINORI 1735 traces its story to Marquis Carlo Andrea Ginori, who founded a porcelain manufactory near Florence in 1735 after becoming fascinated by Europe’s new “white gold.” The Doccia tradition grew through vivid color, sculptural forms and a willingness to let tableware carry the drama of a room.

LOUISE ROE
LOUISE ROE makes home objects that sit between sculpture and daily use, with glass, ceramic and metal doing most of the talking.

The pieces are quiet in purpose but rarely plain in outline, which is exactly what makes them work in a real room.
LOBMEYR
LOBMEYR treats glassware as part of the architecture of a table, where a tumbler or pitcher can carry as much presence as a vase. Founded in Vienna by Josef Lobmeyr in 1823, the family house has moved from Biedermeier glass and imperial commissions into collaborations with modern designers. The current selection keeps that long view intact, pairing hand-finished crystal with shapes that feel surprisingly current.
