“I feel like the first thing I knew I needed for Inicio was the ceramic magic from Nicole Pilar.” - Chef Justin Hayes
Nicole Pilar, based in Brooklyn, grew up just north of the city in a log cabin. The proximity to nature greatly influenced her artistic development. As an artist, Nicole explores mediums bringing out their most natural quality in the organic forms as reflected in her jewelry, home and tabletop collections and installations.
Nicole’s hands are never idle with an aim to create the unexpected, finding beauty in the organic, imperfect and unconventional.
With Dr. Ghamande’s affiliation with Algodon Estates in Argentina, Inicio is proud to partner with Gaucho - Buenos Aires. You will see accents from Gaucho - Buenos Aires throughout the experience from the custom made knives to champagne buckets. This connection perfectly reflects Chef' Justin’s intentional culinary inspiration from recent travels to Central and South America.
We proudly carry Gaucho - Buenos Aires Knives for sale.
