There are excellent cookware and bakeware staples out there that everyone knows and loves—and has in their cupboard, for good reason. But a little further down the aisle, some other beautiful pots, pans, and more await. Here is a roundup of five must-have, stylish cookware companies who offer intriguing shapes, colors, and functionality.

The Copper Set by Material Kitchen
The Coated Pan, a modern take on the nonstick, has a 5-ply copper core and a stainless steel alloy coating made without lead, cadmium, or PFOAs. It also comes in two gorgeous colors—Dune and Mineral.

Chef Nancy Silverton Bakeware by Made In Cookware
This newcomer has been making waves for its affordable, high-quality pans, knives, tableware, and bakeware. The porcelain bakeware by chef Nancy Silverton is particularly fetching, made in the Loire Valley using a “secret recipe”.

Milo by Kana
A particularly simple and elegant set of cookware from Canada, with a focus on durability (and the inherent sustainability it affords) and non-toxic materials. (The colors are pretty dreamy, too.)

Staub by Williams Sonoma
Based in France and founded in 1974, the company began with its now famous cocotte, a veritable kitchen workhorse. They have since expanded, offering some unusual shapes and particularly deep and rich colors.

Home Cook Duo by Our Place
The Always Pan is a 10-in-1 cookware system that ssautés, fries, roasts, boils, bakes, braises, sears, strains, serves, stores. Add the Perfect Pot, an 8-in-1 family-sized, stovetop-to-oven nonstick pot, and you’re pretty much set.
