Dario Piluso's artisan history has its roots in the ceramic workshop of his mother, Santina Raimondo. But it was only after his 15 years of experience in the world of wine, when, as an established sommelier, he decided to return to the family workshop, continuing his mother's 30-year craftsmanship history, giving birth to Ceramiche Baroquè.
The company was founded by distorting the classic canons of Caltagirone ceramics, developing unique techniques, on shapes designed also and above all for the world of large-scale catering, mixing and contemporary home decor.
The decorations are “Hand-decorated by nature'',which is the definition used to describe the decoration techniques, with the aim of making each piece unique, always different from one another.
The potter's wheel and the hand of man are the protagonists of the ceramic workshop's work, fundamental tools for imparting the great intrinsic energy of a piece of pure craftsmanship.
The essence of the workshop's sartorial work is to mould itself to our contemporary times, transferring our need for beauty and uniqueness into works capable of being experienced in our daily lives.
