Well-known international brands specializing in ceramic firing mainly focus on designing classic patterns. Italians, in particular, favor traditional, baroque, intricately decorated clay products. This is of course driven by customer demand, who love this style. Ancient Greek columns, flower vases, or ceramic sculptures referencing past eras are always popular. However, some brands, aiming to skillfully break this pattern, have started producing something entirely different.
Breaking the Conventions
Portuguese Byfly has decided to start designing more eccentric and avant-garde pieces to offer people more unconventional items. Today, people are increasingly seeking bold and designer ideas for their home spaces. A luxury apartment today is characterized by minimalism, few furnishings, and controversial design breaks. Here, designers from around the world gladly use fresh and avant-garde concepts. Byfly captured this perfectly and began focusing on ceramics in this style. It’s a very distinctive and peculiar design approach that is gaining more supporters worldwide.
We know well that ceramics are perfect for traditional products. However, more and more brands are moving towards modernity and extravagance. To brighten up and add originality to our living rooms, which need a visible exclamation mark in the form of a piece of furniture. Sometimes it will be a rug, a mirror, a chandelier, or perhaps a designer ceramic vase. Who knows what can make a difference in your interior.
The Story of True Artisans
There would be no ceramic products without true artisans who have been shaping clay for generations. Portuguese heritage largely relies on natural raw materials that the country possesses, as well as on people engaged in all kinds of manual crafts. It is human hands that produce the highest quality clay, which is then fired into exciting ceramics. Finally, a specially selected paint is applied to give the item a unique glow. This fascinating craft has been practiced in Portugal for generations. Their heritage is based on passing down the art of creating these incredible goods. It is a craft at the highest level, demonstrating how much we owe to society living in the age of handmade.
Byfly not only skillfully breaks the rules but also wonderfully captures the spirit of 21st-century art. Therefore, part of the collection is aimed at young people, encouraging them to benefit from ceramic decor. A lamp resembling Mickey Mouse, a wall sculpture in the shape of an African or perhaps Portuguese mask, offers a lot of avant-garde freedom. These are very warm and highly original products. They fit well into any space in our homes or apartments. It’s worth discovering a piece of your soul in their creations.
