3                    INTERVIEW        WITH                   CHEF SAM CROCKER


Q            Where did you get the inspiration for this line? 

A             I make pasta 3 times a week and every time I’m mulling over the best shape to get my noodles from the bowl.  I need a sturdy but thoughtful design that also allows me to use it for nicer dinners with friends, and this very slight cut into the plating surface allows for the more ‘tasting’ portions I serve to be highlighted with negative space.


Q             What’s your favorite piece?

A             Still the ‘Everyday anytime’ bowl.  It’s just the evolution of ideas and experimentation I’ve been going through for five years now and I am insanely proud of it.
