Look at the ancient Japanese ceramics you use everyday, “Alea” is a furnishing accessory with a height of 70 cm. A traditional sakè cup takes on a new character: through a change of scale, it is brought to life from an experimental vision.
The clay used to shape the item comes from rainwater tank present in the same sites that hosted the Etruscans in ancient times.
A refractary chamotte cooked in bucchero, a process that sinks the techniques into the past.
The word Bucchero comes from the Portuguese “bucàro” (fragrant land). In Italy it is associated to the fine ceramics brought to light during the excavations carried out in the Etruscan necropolis. In fact, the Etruscans would have made great use of the typical black ceramic to produce everyday items made fascinating by the characteristic shiny surface, the elegant shape and the precious workmanship.
