★★★★★

A wonderful ceramics workshop that turns out nothing but beautiful things. Lovely decoration, lovely shapes.

I've had occasion to buy from them many times, from holy water fonts as christening favors to all sorts of gifts and a few pieces for myself.

It's impossible not to buy their work.

Simona M.

★★★★★

Excellent! I asked for a custom painted plate and they did a beautifully tasteful job, at a fair price, with great patience and punctuality.

Honest, too, because I paid for almost everything up front without ever having met them.

Giovanni M.

★★★★★

I bought an ornamental pine cone for delivery at a distance. I asked first whether it would arrive before Christmas and the reply was immediate and very warm. Everything arrived within a few days and in perfect condition. Highly recommended

Giovanna G.

★★★★★

I bought online and later at the workshop itself several pieces of fine make and decoration.
I would highlight in particular, beyond the professionalism, the courtesy and the promptness of their replies.
The visit to the workshop was interesting too.
This artisan firm, in the heart of Sicily, does good work and is worth a visit.

Aldo A.

★★★★★

I bought an owl, an exceptional piece.

I came across this company and their site by chance, and having been struck by the beauty of their work I can only confirm their courtesy and great professionalism.

My order arrived even earlier than expected, packed with great care.
Highly recommended.

I'll certainly buy again

Maria Grazia S.

★★★★★

Beautifully sculpted figures and objects, with wonderful colors and refined detail. I ordered the 40 cm female Testa di Moro in green and orange with a pomegranate.
Contact by email was very friendly and quick. Every one of my questions was answered excellently and everything was explained.
The packaging was so good and so secure that nothing happened on the journey to Germany.
Every day we are happy and smile when we look at our Testa di Moro.
