Vasella
Vasella
The appearance deceives the sight like the thought. Savoir faire sometimes unexplored, gestures that in the intimacy of the creative process shape new silhouettes for already known objects are hidden in the folds of “unique” accessories. A carafe of wine, the vase, among our unique pieces, is chameleon-like: all folds and flaps of sheets of earth closed on themselves as if to protect the precious contents.

The clay used to shape the Vasella comes from rainwater tank present in the same sites that hosted the Etruscans in ancient times.
A process that sinks the technique into the past: the clay is first cooked and internally glazed to make it waterproof; subsequently it is cooked again in Bucchero oxide/reduction.
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.

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.
