COSTA NOVA - About the Brand

Inspiration and style for your table

The love of life, family, friends, and healthy food has inspired COSTA NOVA to create fine stoneware collections that combine quality and design with the best ceramic craftsmanship.

The brand produces innovative and sustainable stoneware made from the best natural resources in Portugal.

COSTA NOVA was born in a small Portuguese fishing village, near the Atlantic Ocean. Nowadays, carrying Portugal’s name and heritage worldwide, the brand is present across the 5 continents, in prestigious department stores, boutiques, hotels, and renowned restaurants.

The COSTA NOVA Industria Group

The COSTA NOVA Industria Group traces its roots back to Grestel - Produtos Cerâmicos, established in 1998 and located in Vagos, Portugal. Grestel has been committed to crafting high-quality stoneware tableware, ovenware, and serving accessories for more than 25 years.

The company is also involved in Private Label, producing tableware for renowned international brands.

Its products are sold on all five continents and are showcased in some of the world's most prestigious stores and hotels. Between 85 and 90% of the production is intended for export, with the United States serving as the primary market.
