Bottega Vignoli, based in Faenza—the historic heart of Italian maiolica—offers a strikingly contemporary expression of ceramic art rooted in centuries of aesthetic tradition. Founded in 1976 by sisters Saura and Ivana Vignoli, the studio’s practice draws deeply from a broad cultural and aesthetic lineage: from the geometric rigor of Roman decoration to the intricate vegetal and arabesque patterns of Moorish art, from the opulence of Byzantine mosaics—especially those of nearby Ravenna—to the linear elegance and spatial rhythm found in Italian Renaissance architecture, such as the inlaid marble floors of cathedrals and civic buildings. These diverse sources are not merely echoed but reimagined through a refined and unmistakable visual language.
A defining element of the Vignoli sisters’ process is their mastery of full reduction firing—a complex ceramic technique in which oxygen is carefully restricted within the kiln during firing. This method, both technically demanding and partly unpredictable, produces rich chromatic depth, iridescent surfaces, and the studio’s signature interplay of deep cobalt blues, copper tones, and lustrous metallic effects. Each work becomes a one-of-a-kind alchemical object, shaped as much by fire and chemistry as by form and intention.
Bottega Vignoli’s ceramics are a testament to continuity and reinvention: deeply informed by history yet never confined by it. Their work stands as a powerful dialogue between the ancient and the contemporary, the decorative and the structural, the material and the visionary.
The decor of the Mediterranea collection is a reinterpretation of a 14th century Persian ceramics motif. Artefacts with such decor can be found in the collections of the V&A Museum in London and in the Musee des Arts Décoratifs in Paris just to name a few. The tireless research of the Vignoli sisters into the history of ornament has allowed them to bring this centuries old decor back to life with a fresh and contemporary interpretation, still pregnant of the symbolic meanings of the fish across cultures and centuries. Bottega Vignoli pieces with this decor are included in important private and public collections in Europe, the US and the Middle East.
