The Makers Behind Bianco Table

Two former line cooks and a potter, in Asheville.

Who makes our pieces

Hand-thrown ceramics, named potters

North Carolina and Portugal small-batch — every plate signed by the maker, photographed under controlled daylight.

Portuguese forged flatware (Guimarães)

Drop-forged 18/10 stainless from a family workshop — full-tang, never hollow handles, never flexing tines.

200gsm European washed linen

Twice the weight of typical cotton-blend napkins — stonewashed, mitered, and pre-shrunk.

Lifetime no-chip ceramic warranty

If a Bianco ceramic chips on its rim or foot in the first five years, replacement at our cost — no proof required.

How we got here

Bianco Table started in 2023 because Marcus and Anya — both former line cooks — kept hosting Easter for fourteen on dishware that didn't survive the dishwasher cycle. They wanted handmade ceramics that ran 1,000 dishwasher cycles, forged flatware whose tines don't bend, and linens at twice the weight of generic cotton blend. They found a potter in North Carolina, a workshop in Guimarães, Portugal, and a flax mill in Lithuania. Today every order ships from Asheville with a card listing the maker's name. Replace a chipped bowl two years in — order number is enough.
