Picta

Each artifact is handcrafted according to tradition; as a work in its own right, it is unique and unrepeatable. The production process requires time and patience, a relatively long time that moves awayfrom the industrial logic of "fast" and "repetitive."

The choice of raw materials is intrinsically linked to the landscape and its traditions. Elisa and Roberto, the founders of Picta, love the natural feel of Wood and Earth, which they try to preserve as much as possible, minimizing the use of glazes and paints to celebrate its organic textures. The two artists select each wood plank with care and responsibility, favoring Walnut from fallen or responsibly cut trees. They use onlystoneware mixtures fired at high temperatures of between 1150°C and 1250°C. Such firing causes a principle of vitrification that allows us to obtain ceramic objects that are that are waterproof, highly resistant and therefore durable.
