Industrial-style tableware brings the aesthetic of urban lofts to the table, prioritizing the authenticity of materials and a decidedly functional design. It is characterized by the use of high-density ceramic stoneware, steel with matte or brushed finishes, and thick, often recycled, glass. Far from striving for perfection, this style celebrates rough textures, reactive glazes that create unique patterns, and the robustness of the pieces. It is tableware designed for heavy use, adding a sophisticated and contemporary touch to everyday cooking.

Pay attention to the weight and feel of the pieces, as a sense of solidity is a fundamental part of this style.
