Bio
AMAARO! is a workshop from Emilia that was founded in 2011 by a painter and an architect (Claudia Torricelli, Martino Pompili): a winning combination for the design and manufacturing of majolica objects. They create, entirely by hand, strongly formal products, constantly researching on colors and materials, in order to produce pieces that are always unique.
Self-production is:
handmade production of unique pieces, constantly and actively researching on shapes, colors and processing technologies of materials.
