This mug is made by Maurizio in Altomonte, using clay and a pedal wheel. Every decoration is hand painted before firing. No two pieces are alike: each mug is one of a kind, made in limited quantities.
 
Altomonte is a town in the Cosentino hinterland, among the mountains of Calabria. It has a long history, a historic center overlooking the valley, a ceramic tradition that Maurizio has carried forward for years in his workshop. The decorations on the Limited Edition mugs come from there: coats of arms, local symbols, details born from that history and that land.
 
The clay has a precise color and texture. Firing takes place in the workshop's kiln. The result is a mug that feels different in your hand from any other: solid, warm, present.
 
Use it for coffee, for tea, for breakfast. Or simply keep it, because it's beautiful to look at.
 
An object that comes from a specific place. And you can tell.
