hand painted pottery

Handmade and hand-painted pottery, made on Italy's Amalfi Coast.

While the Amalfi Coast is renowned for its majestic cliffs gracefully descending into the azure Mediterranean, it becomes abundantly clear that this coastal treasure conceals a profound depth. With origins dating back to the 15th century, the Amalfi Coast boasts a venerable history and a deeply ingrained tradition of ceramic craftsmanship. Fashioned from indigenous red clay infused with limestone, these exquisite pottery pieces have been meticulously shaped and fired for countless millennia. From the era of ancient Rome to the present day, cups, bowls, and plates have served as both utilitarian and ornamental artefacts, resonating with diverse facets of human existence.
