5.East Fork
East Fork is a 10-year-old ceramics shop that’s a beloved institution in its community of Asheville, NC, but has grown in popularity nationwide thanks to the homegrown, slightly rustic look of its dinnerware. It started out of a tobacco farm with three friends and is today a business with more than 80 employees and 20 different glazes released to date.
6.Our Place
We love Our Place’s multicultural spin on kitchen gear. While you’ll always be able to shop the brand’s Essentials collection of tried-and-true cookware and dinnerware (we’re especially fond of their hand-painted speckled ceramic stacking plates), Our Place’s most interesting offerings are the result of limited-run partnerships with artists and craftspeople from around the globe.
