Beautiful, classic peacock - ceramics, white, gold - Bruno Costenaro

Unparalleled creativity in ceramic design and an elegant approach to handcrafted finishing of every piece define the essence of the Italian brand Ceramiche Bruno Costenaro. Each item bearing the “B.C.” label is meticulously produced following all necessary steps to achieve an ideal product, shaped and finished to the highest quality standards. Every element is modeled according to instructions personally dictated by Bruno Costenaro, reflecting his taste and that of his clients, as well as current market trends. After the first model is produced, molds are made for the final products. This marks the beginning of a time-consuming process in creating this beautiful ceramics.

Everything started when Bruno Costenaro, born in Bassano in 1940, began to learn the secrets of ceramics. He was only thirteen years old at the time and worked in companies in Marostica and Cassola. By the age of twenty, he decided to create exquisite ceramics from Italy, initially with two partners in Vallonara, and later independently in Pianezze.

Over the years, demand for his products grew, and the brand moved to Molvena. Initially, a small-scale production took place in the basement of his new residence, which after many setbacks, led to the construction of a workshop adjacent to his home, where he still works today. This demonstrates that family-run manufactories thrive and create true luxury. The strength of the workshop was extraordinary, thanks to its level of creativity, innovation, export interest, and the company's ability to overcome sector crises, providing employment over the years to about seventy collaborators, including his children, who continue the business.

On March 26, 2000, Bruno Costenaro received the honorary title of master craftsman of the Vicenza province; in recognition of his exemplary conduct both personally and professionally, distinguished by dedication to work and generosity in passing on techniques and values to future generations. To this day, Ceramiche Bruno Costenaro remains one of the most prestigious ceramic factories in the area, always looking to the future, conducting research to satisfy its clients, and delivering high-quality artistic products.

How is this stylish ceramic created?

Each piece of ceramic from the mold is then hand-finished. It is glazed using the “a bagno” method (dipping), according to the colors chosen by the customer (for example: white, black, ruby red, cobalt blue, emerald green), and then fired at a temperature of 1020°C.

At this temperature, the glaze makes each item resistant and transparent. Finally, each element is entirely hand-finished, allowing Italian decorators to achieve refined details in gold and platinum. Fired at 600-700°C, the final product is delicate in craftsmanship and carefully finished in every detail. After polishing, each piece is marked, and a factory quality certificate is placed in a small box. Items are packed into cardboard boxes using a modern packing machine that creates soft cushions wrapping the delicate articles.

This modern packaging method ensures that goods are never damaged or broken during transit. All boxes are then placed on Euro pallets (approximately 80 cm x 120 cm), making the products safer and eliminating issues with missing items. Upon receipt, the customer can attest to the quality of the product, having purchased an item directly from Ceramiche Bruno Costenaro.

Today, the brand has expanded to include: gifts, complete series consisting of centerpieces, baskets, vases, picture frames, ashtrays, plates, lamps, columns, cachepots, mirrors, panels, candlesticks, clocks, tables, and swans.
