With its sinuous amphora shape and stunning Byzantine-inspired decoration, this elegant vase is an opulent accent for any refined interior. The handmade ceramic surface is adorned with a steel tool that creates tile-like engravings recalling the allure of ancient mosaics. This method, developed by Sambuco, allows for a lavish decoration of floral and abstract motifs flanking a central rendering of two peacocks. The vibrant colors are complemented by hand-applied gold details set into the surface with a third and final firing in the kiln.

Discovering the Artisan
Sambuco
Umbria, Italy | Ceramist
Mario Sambuco established his eponymous brand at the end of the 1950s, following the footsteps of his father Luigi who has a deep knowledge of Deruta-style ceramics. Since the ‘80s, Mario’s sons Lucio and Luca took up the family business, creating new designs thanks to constant research and experimenting with precious finishes such as gold, silver, and platinum. Sambuco keeps alive traditional techniques by rigorously maintaining handcraftsmanship at the core of production, receiving the prestigious Primo Concorso tra Ceramisti in Deruta prize in 1991.Discover more
