PORTA's philosophy centers on bridging heritage craft and contemporary design by curating and collaborating with artists and artisans across Europe. Our collection reflects a dedication to craftsmanship whether humble and hand-hewn or polished and pristine, each piece honoring our founders’ Italian roots as well as their global travels and inspirations. 

At PORTA, we believe in the transformative power of everyday objects to enrich daily rituals. Whether enjoying a casual meal or hosting a festive gathering, our products are crafted to elevate these moments, fostering connection and joy.  

Located in the heart of Brooklyn's historic antiques row, our 450 square-foot storefront was designed by Architectural Digest AD100’s Studio Giancarlo Valle, and is an intimate space that brings together natural materials and domestic textures, creating the perfect setting for an ever-evolving array of tableware and homewares to discover and delight in.

About Alice & Francesca

Alice and Francesca have known each other forever. Growing up in London, they often popped into poky neighborhood shops on a whim, finding inspiration in the beautiful odds and ends on display. Now settled in Brooklyn with their own young families, the lifelong friends have launched PORTA as a space to channel that same exciting sense of discovery.
