These groups were put together by Vivian, drawn from the sets that comprise the Collection. Sold in sets of 4, they make great building blocks to start your own collection or add on to one of the larger sets to suit your needs.

We fell in love with these versatile, oval plates when we saw them as the main sharing plate at Lenoir Restaurant in Charleston, SC. Inspired by the classic diner “ add on” plate that you get when you order an extra side like bacon or pancakes, and we can vouch for the fact that they make a perfect main plate at home.

Is your dinnerware dishwasher & microwave safe?

Yes, our plates are designed for the rigors of restaurant kitchens and will be safe in your dishwasher & microwave. For cleaning we recommend using detergents that are gentle and environmentally friendly such as Seventh Generation.

How do I clean cutlery marks off the plates?

Any matte glaze can show cutlery marking over time. This is a factor of the glaze being stronger than the flatware. Any marking is only temporary and do not worry, it is not harming the glaze. To remove these marks, we recommend scrubbing with a gentle abrasive cleaner such as Bar Keeper’s friend.

Is your dinnerware oven safe?

Yes, our plates are also safe in your oven up to 400°F but they are not bakeware or intended for routine use in the oven. Always be careful to prevent subjecting them to thermal shock (going from extreme cold to extreme hot or visa versa). Thermal shock can break or damage porcelain pottery.

Are your products durable?

Our work is used daily in over 175 restaurants around the world. Fast paced restaurants put our plates through rigors that they’ll never experience in your home. You can use our plates just like you’re accustomed to and when taken care of and stored properly, our wares will last a lifetime (or a few!).

How do Haand plates stack?

Our plates are designed to stack in your cupboard. We do not recommend stacking plates more than 12" high.

Versatile, Everyday Beauty

Versatility is not talked about enough. It is the superstar, secret power of a truly great object. The best tableware can be used for any meal: a formal wedding brunch, unexpected visitors staying for breakfast, a picnic, a pretend (or real) tea party, or a wake.

Sustainable Heirlooms

Haand always designs our work to last a lifetime and we want to highlight something with this collaboration that can often be overlooked: buying a well-made object with the intention of passing it on to the next generation can have a profound impact on your carbon footprint.

Shipped with care & love

We package every order carefully, ensuring our pieces arrive on your doorstep intact. For this collaboration, we are including a special recipe from Vivian and illustrated by Mark in every order.

A note from Vivian Howard and Haand

Introducing the Vivian Howard & Haand Collection

This is not your grandma’s china. These are modern heirlooms curated by Vivian Howard, an expert in hospitality and deliciousness, and crafted by Haand, experts in handmade, modern design.

This collaboration grew out of the mutual respect and conviviality between Haand and Vivian Howard as we worked together over the years: first to provide many of the plates and serving pieces pictured in This Will Make it Taste Good, followed soon after by a full line of ware for Lenoir in Charleston, SC. 

We know you will love these pieces, and we hope the memories created around them will be full of joy for years to come.

"I think of these dishes as like a really good cast iron skillet. You invest in it, keep it for years and pass it down."

- Vivian Howard

Curated for Versatility

"The collection is so versatile. The saucer with the coffee cup is not just a saucer. It's a great cocktail party plate. The share plates are perfect for salad or dessert. It's what we put in front of every guest at Lenoir because everything we serve is family style."

- Vivian Howard

New Finish

Introducing Buttermilk Pink

"A Pink glaze is hard. To make the color work, we pulled out all of the stops and the color we came up with is, in my opinion, perfect. It basically forces you to pick it up and feel it in your hands. The touchstones we talked about most were from the natural world- flowering tobacco (Nicotiana alata) native to eastern NC. This glaze is something to behold, and best viewed in person. And even if you aren’t a “pink person”, I bet you will like this color, too. It’s not a trendy shade of pink, it’s one that you will look in style decades from now. The name, Buttermilk Pink, is all Vivian, and like any good color name, it’s almost a haiku- I imagine a fresh pail of milk catching the reflected pink of sunrise and a farmer pausing to reflect on the beautiful way a quotidian thing can become sublime and extraordinary in the right light."

-Mark

"I love the way it changes in the light. In some cases, it's this deep pink. In others, it's more of what I like to call buttermilk pink. It's so subtle. It's so neutral that it will look good in any kitchen."

- Vivian Howard

Explore the Full Collection

"If anything has encouraged me to buy more things made in the United States, it is this supply chain conundrum. These dishes might be the only thing you can get in time for Christmas."

- Vivian Howard

A truly delightful thing about any collaboration is to see your own work through your partner’s eyes. These sets are drawn from Vivian’s favorite Haand pieces, all of them performance tested at Lenoir Restaurant in Charleston, SC. Blended together through simple narratives: Dinner Party, Intimate Cocktail Party, etc. these are all perfect building blocks for yourself or as gifts.
