Research, knowledge, tradition and a forty-year experience are the foundations on which Riccardo Varsallona has built his workshop, which creates and displays one-of-a-kind pieces made according to Caltagirone’s traditional ceramic-making techniques. Caltagirone boasts a deeply-rooted tradition of ceramic processing, since the production of proto-majolicaware, which Varsallona has carefully studied. His children have joined the business and carry on the local ceramic-making tradition by creating original as well as custom-made pieces.
Monday to Saturday from 9 am to 1 pm and from 3 pm to 7.30 pm. On Sundays by appointment
