The Capodimonte Porcelain D'Arte firm was founded by master craftsman Salvatore De Palma in 1930.

The workshop produces objects, such as vases, statues and paintings, and they are created entirely by master sculptors in the tradition of the old school of Capodimonte.
Monday to Friday from 8:30 am to 1 pm and from 2 pm to 5 pm, Saturday morning by appointment
