Carmel Ceramica was started after Elece Leverone decided to turn her passion into a business. Leverone is a founder and owner of a successful Los Angeles based Information Technology company. After moving to Carmel she studied ceramics at the local college and became so interested in the industry that she installed a studio in her barn and began designing ceramic tableware for production.

Carmel Ceramica has a line of tableware that is best described as casual elegance inspired by the beauty that surrounds Carmel.
