Bringing art to your table
We love a pretty table and recognized a need for a fuss-free way to set one. Since 2010, we have been creating products to do just that: style a table in paper while maintaining the aesthetic of high-end elegance. Hester & Cook has remained true to our focus of bringing one-of-a-kind works of fine art to your table. Nearly all of the placemats seen here feature the hand-rendered work of talented digital and fine artists.

Cheers to 20 Years!
We exist to serve by elevating experiences that create meaningful connection.
Hester & Cook started in the home basement of husband and wife team Robbie and Angie Hester Cook. What began as Robbie’s inspired idea of crafting a vintage door knob into a bottle stopper soon became the company’s first product, Knobstoppers. From there the company rapidly grew- offering everything from hand-crafted chandeliers to #2 pencils. Today we are best known for our paper tabletop products designed to help elevate dining experiences.
