Handmade Cúrate Three-Legged Pig Toothpick Holder

If you’ve dined with us before, you may have noticed the small ceramic pig toothpick holders on every table! A staple of tapas bars worldwide, diners use toothpicks to spear a piece of food from a shared plate.

In Asheville, we couldn’t pass up the chance to work with one of our favorite local potters to craft custom pig-shaped toothpick holders for Cúrate. Lori Theriault of Crazy Green Studios, formally located in the River Arts District (before Hurricane Helene), makes every pig by hand.

These pigs only have three legs - the fourth is the jamón! We are so happy guests can support our local art community while taking home this one-of-a-kind memento of their Cúrate experience.
