My Méz

My Méz combines functionality and art. Méz is the Indian word for table, similar to Mesa in Latin/Spanish. The table is topped with a photograph and then finished with a coating that makes the table top durable and attractive.

You could say we give lasting form and function to people’s memories. It’s art so good that you could eat off it!

With our Indian heritage, Méz seemed like the perfect name for our business. However we’ve lived in RI for over 10 years now and made the conscious decision not to outsource the production but to handcraft our tables right here in Rhode Island. We are passionate about quality and believe that functionality and beauty can go hand in hand. Our artful tables add character to any home or theme-room and also make the most unique, custom gifts.

Biggest challenge: The biggest challenge that my husband and I have had is to balance our priorities for our start up while working full-time. It’s important to promote and market our product while being realistic about operational considerations.
