Our story
We started in a chef’s kitchen, not a design studio.
Kilnward began when a head chef got tired of reordering chipped plates every quarter. Our first range was a single coupe plate, fired harder and glazed thicker for the pass, and it is still the plate most kitchens order first.
Today we specify five families of porcelain, stoneware, glass and serveware. Every piece is tested in working kitchens before it reaches the catalogue, stocked in depth at our Northport warehouse and packed in case quantities that match how you actually order.
One account, one quote, one delivery. That is the promise.
How we work
Three rules behind every product we list.
Service tested
Every piece runs a full season in a partner kitchen before it is listed. Chips, crazing and stacking faults never make the catalogue.
Stocked in depth
Core lines are held in volume, so a reorder for twelve sites ships as fast as a sample for one.
Packed by the case
Order in the case sizes we ship. Minimums and pack increments are clear on every product, so quotes never bounce back.
