The Artefice Atelier brand is synonymous with the highest quality raw materials and handcrafted work.

The dual nature of a ceramic object is one of the most fascinating aspects of human activity worth exploring. Truly, success in resolving the divide between practical problems and individual expression presents a creative challenge for Artefice Atelier. The way they approach this theme defines the quality of their perception and artistic creativity.
SYRACUSE, OUR STRENGTH

Here, the power of volcanoes merges with a rich and fascinating history, inspiring culture, rich traditions, and a vibrant present. This unique place unleashes inspiration through its wild beauty, eruptions, and history that still echoes in its ancient ruins.
Thanks to its natural majesty and timeless cultural heritage, Sicily offers endless inspiration for creativity.
In fact, this island, with its breathtaking landscapes and rich culture, is the creative cradle of Artefice Atelier, from which it draws the essence of its works. Artistic artifacts, shaped by master craftsmen, contain the fiery energy of volcanoes and the depth of ancient Sicilian legends, giving each piece a unique soul.
TO CREATE

One of our strengths is continuous idea exchange with clients. Comparing their thoughts and needs is an essential and irreplaceable part of creating new products.

Every piece is made with care and love, with attention to detail; and the working method is part of the brand’s identity, never to be betrayed. They are committed to constantly seeking new stimuli, original harmonies, expanding horizons through artistic expressions that are never banal and always experimental.

The brand also distinguishes itself by the quality of raw materials it works with, such as stoneware suitable for tableware. Every day, they work to achieve their main goal: to channel all creativity into serving others, realizing their desires through their artistic sense.

FROM THE EARTH TO MAJOLICA

Every work begins with a pencil sketch, translating the artist’s thoughts. This shapes the object, transforming the image of imagination into reality. Skilled hands use clay and water to almost magically create desired shapes. After leaving the piece to dry for several days in special conditions, it reaches the so-called “skin hardness” and is then ready for the first firing at around 1000°C.

Terra cotta is then ready for decoration. This is a phase in the production process during which the artist gives their all. Often, it’s about giving space for imagination and color.

The production process ends with a second firing at about 920°C, which enhances the colors’ shine and preserves the paints for centuries. Sometimes, a third firing is necessary for glossiness.
