Description

Our Umbria Collection is from a small hill town near Assisi. This small, family factory has been making ceramics for generations, and has their own process for finishing each piece. After each piece is completed, it is dipped in a clear coat and then high fired for a third time, adding a beautiful shine to the brightly colored ceramics. Traditionally, Italian ceramics are only high fired twice; a third firing adds extra protection and strength. With our Frutta collection rustic meets elegant as a riot of cherries, pears, and lemons are embraced by lush green leaves with deep cobalt blue accents. The unusual, mottled white under-glaze features a varying texture that artfully reveals subtle hints of the red clay pottery underneath.
