Brand History

Both founders, Luciano and Marilena Tellatin, started their careers in pottery when they were just sixteen and decided to establish their own company after years working as employees in two different antique factories. In a garage at their home, then in a shed, in 1982, the founders created a story that continues to this day. Deep passion and dedication are the elements through which the founders lead the company, supported by young entrepreneurship—son Alberto. He joined the family business in 2000 after earning a teaching degree from the Art Institute of Nove: representing the future of a brand that still has much to offer clients and partners.

Over 30 years of experience, elegant collections, harmonious forms, respect for work that is primarily craftsmanship and ancient labor, and ultimately, endless investment in the artisanal heritage of antique Nove forms: these are the qualities that make Ceramiche ML unique, dynamic, respectful of ancient pottery traditions, yet enthusiastic about the future.

The town where everything takes place is located in the province of Vicenza. This place has been recognized as one of the best examples of Italian ceramic tradition since the 16th century: a land enriched with artisanal knowledge, artists, sculptors, and ancient factories known worldwide. The Nove and Bassano regions are full of old companies whose work contributed to building the reputation of the ceramic district, decorating homes' furniture worldwide.

The history of this place tells of a long tradition rooted in the 17th century, and its fortune is due to several factors: the presence of underground plastic clay, "lottame" (limestone rich in mineral silica), kaolin, and the use of the Brenta River for transporting finished products and wood for kilns, as well as powering water mills used for mixing clay and grinding pebbles at the riverbed.

Another factor fostering the creation of a prestigious ceramic tradition in this region was the decree of the Venetian Senate. In fact, in the 17th century, the growing and increasingly widespread demand for fine ceramics in China prompted Dutch ceramists to imitate these works, flooding the Venice market with their products. As a result, in 1728, the Venetian Senate decided to increase domestic production with tax incentives for those producing porcelain and improving majolica production, thus managing the birth of the ceramic district in Nove.

The production area of the district still focuses on the municipalities of Nove and Bassano, surrounded by a dense network of companies that contributed to the region’s worldwide reputation for excellence and uniqueness, unmatched elsewhere in Italy.
