We are Pilar and Ellen, the founders of Mesa Serena. What connects us is a love of beautiful tables, special objects, good food and the relaxed way of life around the Mediterranean. To us, a table is much more than a place to eat. It is where people come together, stories are shared and evenings naturally last a little longer.

Pilar is Spanish and still spends a lot of time at her home in Spain. For her, food, family and long meals at the table are inseparable. With her Spanish background, sense of style and knowledge of the region, she knows how to find the most beautiful artisan workshops and small makers. Places where work is still done by hand and where every plate, every bowl and every object has its own character. Step by step, the Mesa Serena collection grows from these discoveries.

Ellen brings years of experience in retail and e-commerce. As the former owner of several online shops, she knows how to turn beautiful products into a strong brand and a special shopping experience. After selling her online shops, there was room — and energy — for something new again. A project where entrepreneurship, creativity and a love of interiors and dining come together.

That is how Mesa Serena came to be: from two different backgrounds, but with the same idea. We want to bring together special Mediterranean objects you won't find everywhere — made with care, carefully selected by us and meant to be used for years to come.
