Squillace Ceramics in Catanzaro

Squillace ceramics are a Calabrian artisanal tradition characterized by objects shaped and decorated by hand, often featuring vegetal, geometric, or stylized animal motifs. The most common forms include decorative plates, jugs, bowls, and small ornamental items glazed in warm colors such as yellow, green, and brown. Each piece retains small variations resulting from manual craftsmanship and kiln firing, elements that make it unique. Contemporary production continues to draw inspiration from historical and Mediterranean motifs while preserving techniques passed down through generations of artisans.
