Materials and Process

The Inserti collection combines two contrasting materials and technologies,
creating a strong conceptual dialogue between craftmanship and industry.

The vases are handcrafted by a family of ceramists based in Lombardy. Each of them is carefully refined and brings all the small imperfections that reflect the living artistic heritage behind it and which makes every piece unique. They are glazed with delicate pastel colours and produced in limited series.

Aluminium has been chosen for the profiles because of its main features, such as lightness and water resistance. The bars are sourced from the construction industry, and have the typical architectonical H section. They are carefully edited to be transformed in precious elements: first cut and pierced, they are later polished, sanded and chemically treated to achieve a shiny, coloured finish which convert the raw material into a refined one. When you hold them in your hands you fell like you are touching something valuable and, somehow, technological.
