Everyday special
- • Lorenza creates resistant stoneware tableware
- • Her objects are minimalistic in style
- • She collaborates with renowned chefs and their restaurants
Lorenza Bessone is a pragmatist by nature. That is why, since the beginning of her career as a ceramicist, she has focused on creating functional pottery, stoneware objects for everyday use, from plates to bowls, mugs and vases. In particular, she has collaborated with star chefs, providing them with handmade tableware for their restaurants, items that are both beautiful and resistant to chips and scratches, and dishwasher safe. "Decorative ceramics, which are fired at low temperatures, are very popular in Italy, where there is a long-established tradition. But these are not my cup of tea," Lorenza explains. "I definitely feel closer to contemporary, Nordic design, characterised by minimalism and practicality." In fact, the urge for tangibility was what drew her to ceramics in the first place.
