But recently we’ve been noting more delicate Italian tableware at Lennard’s accompanying shop, Il Buco Vita: pastel ceramics and soft-hued glassware, sourced from trips to central and southern Italy (and never before sold in the US).
Spring awakening: a simple table set with Italian glassware and ceramics.
The terracotta Bevagna One Litre Pitcher is glazed in white with a green rim; $70.
A stack of Assisi plates in pale blue-grey.
The Assisi Appetizer Bowl is made of black terracotta clay glazed in five soft colors.
The dappled Pienza Honeycomb Patterned Tumbler is $34.
Panzano Rustica Napkins are cut and sewn in Tuscany of Italian linen; $40 for a bundle, tied with twine.
A collection of tumblers, including the La Riccia Footed Drinking Glass, free-blown from recycled glass by an artisan in the Maremma countryside; $65 each.
A set of Assisi Oval Platters in Sage Green, $300.
Collepino Twisted Candles ($28 for the tall size) and Collepino Tapered Candles (from $12) are made by hand the traditional way by Stefano, the candlemaker.
Pienza 10-Ounce Glass Tumblers in clear, green, and amber are mouth-blown by a brother-sister team in a Tuscan village; $36 each.
