Stern

Inspired by the German word for "star," the Stern collection brings the quiet beauty of the night sky to your dining table. Each piece is a testament to the art of possibility, where modern design meets a rustic soul. At the heart of this collection is the reactive glaze, a dynamic finishing process that ensures no two items are ever exactly alike. The glaze reacts to the heat of the kiln, creating unique patterns and color variations, much like the constellations scattered across the cosmos. This means your dinnerware is not just a set; it's a collection of individual artworks, each with its own story.

A Canvas for Each Meal

The unique finish of the Stern collection provides a stunning backdrop for your culinary creations. The subtle, variegated colors of the reactive glaze make food appear more appetizing and thoughtfully presented. These pieces are a natural fit for the modern host who appreciates sharing beautiful meals, whether it's a simple weekday breakfast or a carefully planned dinner party. The visual depth of the glaze turns everyday dinnerware plates into a canvas, making every dish worthy of a photograph.

Modern Form, Rustic Soul

The Stern collection strikes the perfect balance between modern style and traditional charm. A few have a square, bold profile that is edgy and space-saving in your cabinetry. This clean, contemporary shape is softened by the earthy, handmade appearance of the stoneware and its unique glaze. This contrast makes it easy for the collection to blend seamlessly with a variety of home decor styles, from wabi-sabi simplicity to modern farmhouse. It's an intelligent choice that elevates your home, not overpowers it.

Designed for the Realities of Everyday Life

Function shouldn't come at the expense of craftsmanship. Stern's collection is built to withstand the rigors of day-to-day living. Made of long-lasting stoneware, these pieces are chip-resistant and designed for longevity. For ultimate convenience, every piece is microwave-safe and dishwasher-safe, so preparation and cleanup are a breeze. The bowls and plates' stackability also makes storage simple and efficient. This is an enduring quality, made for how you live.

FAQs

Q1: What is Special about Reactive Glaze Dinnerware?

A: The reactive glaze process yields a unique, individual finish on every piece. Chemicals in the glaze react with the high temperatures in the kiln, producing beautiful, unexpected patterns and color changes. This gives every piece an artisan, handmade appearance that cannot be duplicated by the use of conventional glazing methods.

Q2: Is the vancasso Stern Collection Dishwasher and Microwave Safe?

A: Yes. All pieces in the Stern stoneware collection are designed with contemporary convenience in mind and are microwave- and dishwasher-safe.

Q3: Is Food-Safe Stoneware Utilized within the Stern Collection?

A: Yes. The health of our customers is our top priority. The Stern collection is constructed with non-toxic materials, and glazes are certified lead-free and cadmium-free, as per international food safety regulations.

Q4: How Should I Take Care of My Stoneware Dinnerware?

A: To make your dinnerware last longer, it's best to avoid the abrupt switch from extreme temperatures (like removing a dish from the fridge and setting it directly into a hot oven). To store, stack pieces gently, perhaps with something between to keep from scratching the glaze. Always dry pieces before storing them in an open cabinet.

Q5: Can a Replacement Part Be Bought if One Is Damaged?

A: We also know that accidents do happen. Although individual pieces are not on sale, we do carry smaller sets containing only one kind of item, i.e., a set of four dinner plates or four bowls. Kindly contact our customer service and inquire about the availability of the Stern series, and we will try our best to help you get a replacement for your existing set.
