Magenta’s stable of artists make dinnerware, appetizer and dessert serving products, kitchen tools, baby products and pet and garden accessories in ceramic, porcelain and other mixed materials. Founded in 2002, this Berkeley, California–based company takes its name from the color that's most difficult to achieve in firing ceramics—and the nomenclature befits Magenta's clever designs for the home. From the purely decorative to the practical, each ceramic item has a whimsical flourish or vintage inspiration (like an antique tile or textile pattern) that sets it apart.
