Swan, a food and craft studio

We cook, make tableware and source products for everyday use. Inspired by folk traditions and shaped by years in restaurant kitchens, our work begins with slow cooking and measured steps. First we simmer, then we build.

Tableware sits at the heart of the studio. We work with ceramics, wood, linen and brass, collaborating with makers across Europe and beyond. Our objects are human. Some bear marks. They carry the traces of their making.

In the kitchen, we cook with the seasons alongside farmers, fishermen and producers. We follow instinct and the wind. Each dish is prepared and served as the day unfolds.

We also share a small selection of products. The first is an olive oil from Apulia, peppery with the scent of freshly cut grass, made by people we return to year after year.
