Personally, I love the crisp, shiny textures that these tools have, even when they're automatically generated they look phenomenal. There's just not that many for the chef's table, though.

I have a few suggestions, stuff like:

• Pots
• Saucepans
• Mixing bowls (and if they need to have contrast between the mortars, maybe style it like a white porcelain bowl with a stripe of the material below the rim)
• Oven sheets
  (generally stuff that you would expect to see when you're cooking)

I was going to make this suggestion about other tables as well but I couldn't personally think of any. I understand that you're busy working on all of your mods, and that this may simply not happen.

Pam's Harvestcraft use nice "Tools" for cooking.
Maybe get inspired by them.

Optional: Add durability to the Pam's Items, so they can be used with durability lose in Artisans.

(Not the room for that, but here is some extra - Mod Suggestion: Creat a Mod that can add Durability to Items that have none)

This is unlikely to be implemented because Artisan Worktables is now in 1.16. The 1.12 version will still receive fixes, but will not be receiving any new features.
