How it started
I began working ceramics in 2017, when I moved to Turin, bringing with me years of design studies and a family background rooted in craftsmanship. I was immediately drawn to the possibility of shaping material and learning a new kind of discipline that felt, to me, both free and rigorous.
I started working with clay by hand, and only a few years later began using the wheel. The way I work is entirely dependent on how I feel: there are days when hand-building becomes almost a meditative ritual, and others when I feel so focused that I could work at the wheel for hours without ever growing tired.
My ceramics share the same roots as I do: they draw on the warm tones of the earth, the stone walls of the South, and the tactile presence of visible textures. Their shapes are always sinuous yet solid.
My collections begin as small objects for everyday use and, over time, have also evolved into pieces of furniture and interior elements.
They’re part of an ongoing experimental research process that celebrates imperfection.
Retrobottega
Laboratorio condiviso e concept store
In 2025 I launched Retrobottega, a small, cosy studio located in one of Turin's most vibrant areas, where I share the space with other artisans.
Here we make ceramics, candles and other handmade treasures, hosting pop-up events to connect with other small brands, growing, creating and thriving together with our community.
