The hand goes where the strength of matter takes it. Because it is in the folds of the “unique” accessories that savoir faire at times unexplored is hidden, gestures that in the intimacy of the creative process shape new silhouettes for already known objects, a vase that is as changeable as it is enterprising in exploring trajectories that proceed along the sinuous curves of the natural stone.

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.

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.

The black technique on the type of Etruscan Bucchero is a magic technique that consists in cooking items in a reducing atmosphere, i.e. without oxygen. It is a process that allows to obtain black coloured pieces, which strongly show the essence of the ceramic process. The spirit of contemporary research leads to experiencing new production methods and innovative forms, shaping unique items in the characteristic total black of Bucchero.

The item is produced in different sizes, each one unique and can also be glazed, with a precious and timeless final effect.
