Announcing the Incanto Collection by Vietri

One of Vietri's standout offerings is the Incanto collection. The Incanto Lace European Dinner Plate, inspired by the delicate lace of Burano Island in Venice, adds a subtle elegance to any tablescape, whether for daily use or special occasions. You can mix and match with other items from the Incanto collection or opt for a refined monochromatic palette to suit your mood.

Care Instructions for Your Incanto Pieces

Caring for your Incanto additions is easy. The dishes are dishwasher safe; however, it is advisable to use a non-citrus, non-abrasive detergent on the air dry cycle, avoiding overloading the dishwasher. While hand washing is suggested for larger items, these pieces are also microwave safe. Please note that the temperature of these handmade natural clay items may vary, so allow them to cool before handling. The baking and casserole dishes can withstand most conventional oven temperatures up to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, thanks to their dense clay composition and high-firing method. It’s best to place them in a room-temperature oven before heating. Use caution with the decorative handles, ensuring they aren't used for lifting or support.

Material Composition

The Incanto collection utilizes Terra Marrone earthenware—a robust, dense clay traditionally used in Italy for crafting sculptures and church wall art. This dark brown or black clay is enhanced with a white wash in this collection, and a special hardening paste is incorporated for added durability.

Design Inspirations in the Incanto Collection

The designs within the Incanto collection draw inspiration from Italy's rich art and architectural heritage. The Baroque style reflects the intricate architectural curves of 17th-century Europe. Similarly, the Ruffle design mimics the gentle waves of the nearby Adriatic Sea, while the Stripe evokes the grandeur of Italian Palladian villas. The Lace design pays homage to the renowned laces of Burano Island, as well as to the antique lace cherished by the artisan's grandmother.

Handcrafted with love in Veneto, Italy, a region rich in history and natural beauty, Incanto embodies the cultural sophistication and artistic legacy of Italian ceramics. Let Vietri's Incanto Lace European Dinner Plate introduce a touch of charm to your dining experience—a piece that beautifully melds tradition with modern elegance.
