Terramesa – Artisan Style With Commercial Durability

About 4 years ago, I visited quite a few Asian factories in search of artisan glazes that would withstand the rigours of commercial use. While I was doubtful that good product already existed, I just had to make sure since many factories were claiming that their crackle and reactive glazes were superior. After 2 weeks of “mind numbing” travel, I came back to the USA with a suitcase overflowing with representative samples. I then sent samples to Steelite’s UK lab for detailed testing and analysis. The lab results were predictable. None of the product was commercially durable and some wasn’t even safe for food service! This is the same product I see in un-enlightened restaurants… complete with chipped edges!

Terramesa

To fulfill a need in the marketplace without relying on inferior third party factories,  Steelite put its design and manufacturing teams to work  to develop the artisan “look” but with durability that rivaled Steelite’s other dinnerware. The result of this effort is Terramesa. The Terramesa dinnerware line encompasses reactive glazes for an artisan presentation while enjoying the commercial durability of Steelite’s Performance dinnerware body.

Terramesa comes in a choice of warm colors;  Mocha, Mustard, Olive, and Wheat… each trimmed in a reactive border. The dinnerware shapes are taken directly from Steelite’s highly successful Taste range… a winning combination of looks and durability for a fantastic casual home dinnerware presentation.

At Tabletopstyle,  you can purchase Terramesa by the piece and build a personal dinnerware set that compliments your lifestyle. Comfort foods will never taste better!
