Founded in 2014 by Elece Leverone—a former IT entrepreneur who discovered a passion for ceramics after moving to the California coast—Carmel Ceramica offers tableware and home decor inspired by the natural beauty of Carmel and Big Sur. The brand is defined by its casual elegance, translating the coastal landscape into durable Portuguese stoneware. Signature collections like Point Lobos, Cypress Grove, and Lily Valley feature organic shapes and reactive glazes that mimic the ocean, forests, and flora of the region, ensuring no two pieces are exactly alike.
