The home is a symbol of family, serenity, intimacy, tradition, warmth, and togetherness. Sometimes just a simple object, an aroma, a color or a material are enough to bring us back to the ethereal dimension, beyond space and time, which we call home. This is the magical power of terracotta, used as a flooring material for more than 4000 years. In Italy, where the Etruscans exalted the characteristics of this material thanks to the peculiarities of the territory, terracotta found its ultimate expression in Umbria. Here it has been used for hundreds of years to make pottery for wine and oil, imbued with the tastes and aromas of the Umbrian hills and landscapes.
Color
Kaolin White Everything and nothing. This is white. All colors combined, therefore without color. Nevertheless, it exists. It is not possible to say that white does not exist. That is why Kaolin is our favorite white, it transcends. Its matte derivation differentiates it from any other white, making it instantly recognizable. Being exists. Non-being is not. White is Kaolin. Black Bucchero Less is more: reduce oxygen while firing the terracotta, let the carbon particles of the smoke penetrate the body of the objects being fired, and get the black bucchero, an ancient Etruscan opacity illuminated by subtle hints of silver. This can only be done through a process of oxygen reduction. Adding is not always necessary for improvement.
Form
Trapezium The versatility of cotto allows us to give you the possibility to choose from an incredible number of shapes. It is a material that more than others lends itself to experimentation and thinking outside the lines, loved unconditionally precisely because it can satisfy everyone. The trapezoid is the shape that embodies this concept to perfection: it is a hexagon cut in half, so it gives the possibility to create two-colored hexagons; but it also allows you to create incredible patterns that are only apparently irregular, hiding their true nature to a distracted observer. Free your creativity: with Fangorosa there are no limits.
