cooking essentials Bed Bath & Beyond

Picking out cookware usually goes one of two ways: prioritizing function (why don't the most effective cooking tools ever look nice?) or prioritizing aesthetic (it's all fun and games until your picture-perfect pots get scorched by the stove on the first use).

But we say, why can't you have both? Now with Our Table™, the newest cookware line from Bed Bath & Beyond, you can. Specializing in modern cooking and dining essentials, the new collection lets you set up your kitchen to churn out delicious food, and look great doing it. And, if you sign up for a BEYOND+ membership, you can get free shipping and 20 percent off everything.

Even better? These must-haves are all so gorgeously crafted they can go from stovetop to tabletop, without looking out of place — so you can spend more time focusing on making memories with the people you're cooking for, and less time fussing over setting the table.

​Our Table™ Nonstick Aluminum 10-Piece Cookware Set, $100.00​

​Our Table™ 2-Piece Stoneware Bakers Set in Blue, $20.00​

kitchen towelsBed Bath & Beyond

​Our Table™ Select Multi Purpose Kitchen Towels in Navy (Set of 4), $20.00​
