AMALFI Dinnerware Collection
The beautiful ceramics from the city of Vietri Sul Mare on the Amalfi Coast.
Vietri sul Mare is a small town hidden in the most secluded part of the homonymous gulf, Vietri is considered the "First Pearl" of the Almalfi Coast, and is one of the most important villages in the province of Salerno.
Distinctively clear waters met by bright blue backdrops and eternal sunscapes create a magical and healing place which is nourishing to the soul.. Brilliant tones of orange, green, red, and deep sea blue are the natural color schemes which represent the many beautiful and healing attributes of this magical Mediterranean retreat.

LIMONCELLO Sets
If you have ever been to Italy, you’ll instantly know about “Limoncello”.
It is a liqueur to be kept in the freezer and served well chilled.
We do not include the liqueur, but you should try it, being a wonderful palate cleanser and a soothing after dinner drink.

PRINCIPE Dinnerware
The name of this new collection “Principe” (Prince) says it all.
These uniquely molded dinner plates with heraldic designs will add a truly regal look to your table.

PROVENCE Dinnerware
Colorful, casual earthenware to brighten up your table. Made in Italy but inspired by the traditional French ceramics known as “Provence”, this dinnerware is glazed in “provincial” warm ochre, and decorated with a parade of multicolored flowers to add a fashionable touch.
Our Provence dinnerware is ideal for casual brunches and dinners, but can also be matched with formal accessories for stylish banquets.

 

 

About Ceramic Dinnerware

Not Safe for Microwave or Conventional Oven Use
Avoid High Temperatures: Due to its characteristic thickness and earthenware porosity, ceramic dinnerware may be damaged by exposure to extremely hot temperatures.
Our dinnerware products are “Serving” pieces and they are NOT meant to be used for cooking or re-heating.

Protect Against Chips and Cracks
Majolica is low-fired earthenware and chips more easily than china dinnerware.
Careful hand wash is recommended.
Electric dish-washing may be used and, if available, set your dishwasher to a "low-energy/cool-dry" cycle.
Always load your ceramic dinnerware far apart to avoid touching each other during the high pressure dish-washing, since such impact can easily chip the items.

Characteristics of Majolica and low fired Ceramics
With repeated use, Majolica has a tendency to "craze" (forming minuscule lines in the glazing). This crazing is the nature of Majolica, and has no significant effect on the ceramic item.
Because each Artistica’s piece is individually crafted, you may notice slight variations in color and size and occasionally, paint smudges, fingerprints and looseness of lids.
These variances should not be considered as imperfections, but as evidence of fine, hand-crafted work.

All our dinnerware collections are Dishwasher Safe as well as 100% Food Safe, and are regularly inspected and tested for compliance with FDA standards.
