Handcrafted on the potter’s wheel, following the ancient know-how of Sardinian ceramicists, then deformed and delicately decorated with metal, this centrepiece was made by Doriana in Assemini. The combination of white and light gold is particularly elegant and somehow seems to be out of time, contemporary and archaic, Sardinian and universal all at the same time. Its essential style makes it perfect for any interior design.

Handcrafted on the potter’s wheel and then enamelled in red, this globe is finished with an application of liquid gold by brush, then baked for the third time at 700°C. The bowl is part of the series “Qualcosa di incredibile attende di essere conosciuto” (something incredible awaits to be known). The whole series evokes cork, one of the Sardinian typical natural treasure, in modern shaped creations. The link between Doriana’s creations and her region is deep and strong.

Part of the series “Linea cotto e rilievo”, this vase is handcrafted on the potter’s wheel. It’s a tribute to the Sardinian folk costumes, with their lavish details. Its shape is reminiscent of a gold or bronze button (often realised in filigree), while black is the colour of the jackets worn by Sardinian people during their festivals. It’s covered with a black matt enamel and decorated with a white enamel relief embroidery on the lower band.

These bottles are handcrafted on the potter’s wheel and then adorned with relief decorations in white enamel. The motifs of the white surface “embroidery” are inspired by the typical Sardinian pastry-making garnishes. Among various abstract embellishes, the so-called “pavoncella sarda” (Sardinian small peacock) stands out as a symbol of good luck and prosperity. They’re part of the series “Linea cotto e rilievo”.

One of the most ancient creations of the Assemini ceramic tradition, the Brocca della Sposa (Bride’s Pitcher) has been part of the wedding trousseau for centuries. The bride is traditionally given the pitcher on her wedding day: the flowers and pavoncelle (small peacocks) adorning it symbolise her beauty and purity. Also, the richer it is, the wealthier the bride’s family is. Every piece is unique. This Brocca is handcrafted on the potter’s wheel, then the hand shaped decorations are applied on it and finally it is glazed with oxides.
