Tradition and Mastery in Terracotta Work
The De Donatis family's pottery workshop is one of the oldest in Italy, active since 1650. Salvino De Donatis is the last heir of this long line of ceramicists and, together with his children, still respects the tradition of craftsmanship of the artifacts, worked and decorated by hand. Every ceramic item produced in the workshop is a unique piece, created with passion and dedication. The skill in modeling the clay, combined with the creativity in decorations and colors, makes each piece a work of art.
Uniqueness and Tradition
The skill in modeling clay ensures that every item produced is unique in shapes, decorations, and color. The mix and combination of glazes is one of the many peculiarities passed down from father to son. This secret, jealously guarded for generations, allows the company to keep the tradition alive and highlight the art of ceramics. The workshop not only produces traditional items but also creates terracotta favors, Rutigliano whistles, and other handcrafted ceramic items.
Variety of Production
The range of products from the De Donatis workshop is wide and diverse. Among the terracotta items produced are pine cones and pumi, candle holders, items for the table and kitchen such as oilers and bottles, and Apulian heads. There are also vummili, pupa, and plant holders. Each piece is designed to add a touch of elegance and tradition to the home. Among the most requested products are also good luck charms, accessories, and personalized ceramic plaques.
Innovation and Continuity
In addition to traditional pieces, the De Donatis workshop offers a wide range of innovative and original ceramics. These include sea urchins, pierced lamps, decorative whistles, butterflies, and hot air balloons. There are also balloons, house numbers, and Christmas decorations. Each year, limited editions and lustri e preziosi are proposed. There are also decorated tiles and creations inspired by the Salento housewife.
