Maurizio makes this cup in Altomonte, with clay and the pedal wheel. Every decoration is hand painted before firing. No two pieces are identical: each cup is a unique piece, produced in limited quantity.
 

 
Altomonte is a town in the inland hills of Cosenza, among the mountains of Calabria. It has a long history, an old town center overlooking the valley, a ceramic tradition Maurizio has carried forward for years in his workshop. The decorations on the Limited Edition cups come from there: coats of arms, local symbols, details born from that history and that land.
 

 
The clay has a precise color and texture. The firing happens in the workshop's kiln. The result is a cup with a weight in the hand unlike any other: solid, warm, present.
 

 
Used for coffee, for tea, for breakfast. Or kept just as it is, because it's a piece worth looking at.
 

 
An object that comes from a specific place. And you can tell.
