The love of life, family, friends and good food has inspired COSTA NOVA to create fine stoneware collections that combine quality and design in ceramic craftsmanship. The brand produces innovative and sustainable stoneware, made from the natural resources in Portugal. We embrace "handmade" and preserve our European heritage in the manufacture of our stoneware collections, bringing to the table and to the home unique and elegant pieces that suit perfectly in today’s way of living and are able to last for generations. COSTA NOVA was born in a small Portuguese fishing village, near the Atlantic Ocean. Nowadays, carrying Portugal's name and heritage all over the world COSTA NOVA is present across the 5 continents, in prestigious department stores and boutiques, hotels and renowned restaurants. Using the natural resources in Portugal, COSTA NOVA products are made in a single firing system heated up to 1180 degrees C (2160 degrees F) which creates a unique ceramic body with a special bonding between the clay and the glazed surface. This original formula explains why our stoneware is so durable and resistant to both thermal and mechanical shocks. In addiction, our team of designers, technicians, modelers and craftsmen are constantly developing original shapes and colors, all the way to truly unique designed and handcrafted pieces. COSTA NOVA sees its products and operations as part of a long-life cycle and is committed to taking better care of the community and of the world. The effort to go green and to minimize our impact on the environment is (always) a work in progress. As producers, we commit ourselves daily to protect the environment, avoiding unnecessary harm through the resources we use and the products we manufacture.
