November 11 2020
Alessandra sets tables with the same spirit as she designs rooms - and her life! Always fun and never too formal, she loves to mix old and new, different cultures and multiple textures while playing with color.
" There should be yin and yang on every table. The mix is what it's all about! "
All of the Casa Branca dish designs are set upon porcelain of the highest quality made in Limoges, France. Cestino is our graphic interpretation of a basket weave, using a motif carried over from our textile collection. Designed to playfully mix with other designs in our collection or to spruce-up more traditional settings.
