Tavassi Ceramics Capri: the workshop that gives shape to dreams

The Tavassi Ceramics artisan workshop in Anacapri has a double soul. Firstly it opens to the outside to welcome those who love art and know how to recognize its deeper meaning.
Then there is a more intimate, almost hidden, space. This is where Gennaro Tavassi's artistic ceramics workshop begins. You will find him sitting at his turnstile intent on painting surrounded by terracotta objects waiting for his gentle touch to have an identity.

How ceramics are created: from earth to being a decoration piece.

His hands know how to shape the earth and move with mastery guided by reason and feeling. It is precisely from the earth that everything begins. From earth mixed with clay and glass, ceramic creations come to life. Handmade Capri ceramics.

Then, fate comes into play with baking. The heat solidifies before the decorative phase, the final one, in which the brushes become extensions of the fingers and define the personality of the object.

In each of these steps the dedication, expectation and passion that stimulates the ceramist Gennaro Tavassi towards perfection is hidden. Each artistic and handcrafted ceramic creation is never a point of arrival but a starting point in the search for continuous improvement.

And here ceramic pieces for the home and beyond come to life: handcrafted ceramic plates, glasses, jugs, vases, benches, columns, Capri-style tiles, busts that will give a touch of solemnity and light to your living room.
