Rosanna knows the recipe for the Good Life. Start with three intentions: sustain tradition, create ritual, and cultivate connection.

Rosanna believes that eating together is truly a giving and loving experience, and her desire is to celebrate life---from the major milestones to the smallest of moments—through creating personal traditions.

To help realize these intentions, Rosanna designs tableware as stunning as it is soulful. Rosanna's style is one rooted in tradition and finished with a modern twist. Her products make memories and create community. They help us understand what the Good Life is all about.

Rosanna Bowles is a Northwest educated, self-made entrepreneur. Marrying her passion for art history and a Masters in Italian, Rosanna began her company in the garage of her Seattle home. Three decades and millions of dishes later, Rosanna Inc has emerged as a global trendsetter in the homewares industry and has established itself as an internationally-acclaimed brand, shipping truckloads of stylish tableware, designed by Rosanna herself, from her teeming warehouse in Seattle to some of the world’s most exceptional boutiques and stores.

Rosanna's designs are sold in Italy, France, and the United Kingdom, as well as exotic locales including Abu Dhabi, Japan, Brazil, Israel, and Kuwait. She has developed proprietary design work for the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Metropolitan Opera, the New York Jewish Museum, the de Young Museum, and Starbucks Coffee. Rosanna has sold to Bloomingdale's, Nordstrom, Macy's, and the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC. Her dishes can be found in the Galleries Lafayette and Le Bon Marché in France, and Selfridge's, Harrod's, and the Buckingham Palace gift shop in England.

Rosanna has also acquired a remarkable assortment of awards. Seattle Homes and Lifestyle Magazine selected Rosanna Inc. as one of 100 top design companies in the Northwest. In 2005, the UK Giftware Association honored Rosanna with the Gift of the Year Award, making her the first American to win the prestigious accolade. In 2008, the University of Oregon, Rosanna's alma mater, bestowed her with an alumni fellow award for outstanding career achievement. And in both 2002 & 2011, she was a finalist for the Nellie Cashman Woman in Business Award.

Coverage of Rosanna & her product is widespread. Her tableware has been featured in Family Circle, Country Living, Southern Living, Rachael Ray, Sunset, Redbook, People, Brides, Better Homes and Gardens, Bon Appetit, Elle, Elle Décor, Vogue, Real Simple, and The New York Times. Rosanna's dishes have appeared twice on Oprah's "O List," and in 2008, O Magazine included Rosanna in an exclusive feature, "Women Who Make Beautiful Things."

Despite the acclaim, Rosanna's essential vision remains clear: to help others create and keep their own traditions by using her product. Rosanna brings a unique sensibility to her tableware. Her work is not only about producing beautiful things; it is about creating a way of life. Rosanna's first book was born out of this philosophy. Stewart, Tabori, & Chang, a division of Abram's Publishing, released Coming Home: A Seasonal Guide to Creating Family Traditions in March 2010. In the book, Rosanna guides us through the cultivation of human connection with ideas, recipes, and activities inspired by the four seasons—in the hopes of restoring family ritual and tradition to its central place in a family’s life.

Rosanna’s lifestyle expertise extends far beyond the table. She writes weekly on Rosanna's Tabletalk, the beloved blog where she chronicles her life and offers advice about how to live well. She appears regularly on ABC, NBC, and CBS affiliate programs throughout the Pacific Northwest, as well as various radio programs, including Martha Stewart Radio.

Rosanna pours her heart into her work. Her dishes remind us of what's important: to infuse our lives with ritual, tradition, and community, keeping home and family at the heart.
