White, gold - elite ceramic decoration large snail - Bruno Costenaro

Fascinating creativity in ceramic design and a luxurious approach to handcrafted finishing of every product are the hallmarks of the Italian company Ceramiche Bruno Costenaro. Each item bearing the “B.C.” label is meticulously produced following all the necessary steps to achieve an ideal product, shaped and finished to the highest quality. Every element is modeled according to instructions personally dictated by Bruno Costenaro, reflecting his taste and the preferences of his clients, as well as market trends. After the first model is produced, molds are made for the production of the final products. This marks the beginning of a long process of creating this marvelous ceramics.

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

Over the years, the 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, he expanded into a workshop adjacent to his home, where he still works today. This demonstrates that family-owned workshops thrive and create true luxury. The strength of the workshop was extraordinary, thanks to the level of creativity, innovation, their interest in export, and the company's ability to overcome crises in this business sector, providing employment over the years to about seventy collaborators whom Costenaro trained in commerce, including his children, who continue the business.

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

What does the process of creating this elegant ceramics look like?

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 durable and transparent. Finally, each element is entirely hand-finished, utilizing the skills of Italian decorators who achieve refined details in gold and platinum. Fired at a temperature of 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 package. The products are packed into cardboard boxes using a modern packing machine that creates soft pillows to cushion the delicate items.

Thanks to this modern packaging method, there are never issues with damaged goods or broken items. However, all cardboard boxes are contained on Euro pallets (dimensions approximately 80 cm x 120 cm), ensuring safer transportation and preventing missing items. Upon receipt, the customer can attest to the quality of the product, having purchased an item 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.
