Metropoli 8 Vase - Main view
Customizable

Imposing and captivating, this composition from the Metropolis series is inspired by a modern urban skyline with its tall buildings. Ceramist Paola Paronetto uses paper clay (cellulose added into the clay-base mixture), which undergoes a long and laborious process that gives each piece its unique shape and textured finish. Composed of eight cylinders, their pure white color creates a dramatic character and versatility that will enriched any décor with its contemporary, sculptural quality. Every one of Paola Paronetto’s creations is unique. Slight variations in shape, colour and size are to be considered a guarantee of authenticity and value. They are finished with non-toxic satin-finish enamels. Although very rarely, it is possible for them to leak after long periods of exposure to water. It is therefore advisable to test their water resistance before using them on delicate surfaces. They should not be used as dining utensils. The white pieces can be washed with water or sanitizing products, whereas the coloured pieces must be treated more gently and cleaned with a feather duster or a soft cloth, dry or moistened very slightly with water.

Discovering the Artisan

NOT.Ordinary

Sicilia, Italy | Furniture Maker

Editor's Picks

Not.Ordinary expresses a creativity based on local production capacity and traditions, as well as being interested in exploring new and unexpressed ones

NOT.ORDINARY

Not.Ordinary takes on the complex challenge of dealing with an ancient legacy and a very different dimension to the one designers usually work in, but which perhaps for this very reason is full of manufacturing and commercial potential. The project aims to revalue local craftsmanship by inscribing its contribution to an industrial product chain, something that inevitably requires evolution to showcase its unique features while guiding it towards contemporary languages.

The first collection by Not.Ordinary draws on artisan know-how and expertise combined with industrial production. The idea of producing unique pieces is far removed from the reasons that inspired a brand identified with the inimitable mix of craftsmanship and industry typical of ‘Made in Italy’ design, recognized internationally for its excellence. Against this backdrop, Not.Ordinary wants to be an explicit statement of the national character of Italian design, which is not limited to historically consolidated districts because there is creativity and demand for high-quality production everywhere, and often what is needed most is a powerful determination to be a catalyst, organizing them into a business and creating something new.
