Jenna Blake Is Venturing Into the Home Accessory Arena
The jewelry brand just launched a tableware collection called “Casa Blake.”
The jewelry designer behind Jenna Blake has launched “Casa Blake,” her first tableware collection.
It’s a natural new venture for Grosfeld, who owns a boutique hotel brand—also called Casa Blake—alongside her husband.
Grosfeld has long gravitated to interior design elements, amassing a collection of vintage pottery and home décor items over the years.
She sees Casa Blake tableware as an extension of the Jenna Blake jewelry world, which favors bold colors and a vintage-feeling aesthetic. The tableware, which Grosfeld calls “jewelry of the table,” complements the jewelry with its warm, playful feel, and even incorporates the signature Jenna Blake mariner link and hummingbird motifs.
Casa Blake has launched with seven jewelry tray and dinnerware designs. Among them is a goddess that is the Casa Blake hotel emblem.
“So many of the details that I see in vintage decorative arts are elements that I’ve drawn from when designing jewelry–from motifs to color palettes,” Grosfeld said.
“I realized that it only made sense to bring things full circle and create a series of ceramics inspired by my jewelry.”
With prices beginning at $190, each design is available in green, pink, or black on the Jenna Blake website.
Casa Blake tableware will also be featured at the Casa Blake hotel in Costa Palmas, Mexico and its planned locations in Aspen, Colorado and Hawaii.
