  • Bee Wilson explores how quotidian kitchen items become powerful symbols, representing friendship, grief, love, superstition, safety, and even political resistance.

  • Design curator and writer Corinne Mynatt became fascinated with culinary objects she found at flea markets and began researching their history and function.

  • New York Times reporter Rukmini Callimachi follows a Haviland china set that has graced the table of five generations of women.
