TUSCANY
"OLD WORLD" MAJOLICA Collections
Rich and exclusive Artistica patterns that
define the genuine Tuscan look, masterfully
hand-painted by master, with festive color
combinations and fascinating shapes.
Most of these Majolica pieces are created
using the now rare technique called "ingobbio",
an ancient Tuscan process, that produces an
authentic 'Old World' look, and adds
significant body to the colors.
Unlike in other traditional Italian
ceramics, in the "ingobbio" Tuscan majolica
you can actually feel the consistent (almost
raised) body of the painting when gently
passing your hand over decorated parts.
Each piece is hand-finished with our
exclusive 'Old-World' patina, to further
emphasize the look of a genuine antique
majolica piece. |

"PRIMA
CLASSE" LUXURY MAJOLICA
Limited production luxury Italian ceramics.
Prima Classe translates to First Class, and
here we feature our top of the line products
that we have painstakingly gathered over the
years.
Created in small workshops by skilled
artists, the products featured in these
collections are the best exemplary pieces of
true Italian Majolica and original
masterpieces with a very limited
production.
Their scarcity is due by the fact that these
masterworks are exclusively hand painted by
the “maestro” of each workshop,
additionally, the intricate clay bisques are
wheel-thrown, molded by master potters from
separate factories.
These are precious heirlooms to be passed
down from one generation to another.
In some instances, our "Prima Classe" items
require a few weeks for delivery
but after all, good things are worth waiting
for... |

SCAVO
SOLID COLORS Collections
Artistica's 'scavo' look and finish is
renown in our industry as the most
realistic…
Even
the experts will have to look twice to
recognize the antiqued glazing imparted by
the new ceramic technique used on these
collections as each piece is hand-finished,
intentionally distressed to achieve the
well-used look of a much older piece.
Our Scavo collection were created to combine
simplicity and elegance for home and garden
areas featuring captivating shapes of
practical vessels. Fully glazed inside and
out, they hold water and are great for
arranging flowers or as table top decorative
items. |
