Product Description: About VIETRI

The inception of VIETRI can be traced back to a memorable trip taken by a mother and her two daughters to Italy. Captivated by the charm and beauty of Italian dinnerware, they embarked on a journey to create a brand that embodies the essence of Italian craftsmanship and design. VIETRI is now a distinguished leader in its field, enhancing the American lifestyle while celebrating the irresistible Italian way of life—marked by a passion for family, nature, people, and the pleasures of living well.

Our mission is to honor life’s joyful moments spent with loved ones, showcasing the exceptional beauty found in handcrafted Italian designs intended for the table, home, and garden. Each piece is created with love and authenticity in Italy, reflecting the heart and soul of the Italian culture.

Mix and Match Versatility

This color-coordinated collection adds a refined twist to a classic all-white table, making it truly unique to your home.

Artistic Inspiration

Lastra, which means "slab" in Italian, draws inspiration from traditional cheese-making practices in Italy. The design echoes the circular wooden molds that have been used for centuries, with the overlapping detail reminiscent of the twine used to hold them together. This element of design, incorporated from the foot to the rim of each piece, honors history while offering a contemporary touch. A subtle dark dusting around the edges mimics the ash used in cheese preservation, enhancing the distinct silhouette of every piece.

Masterfully Handcrafted

The craftsmanship behind Lastra can be attributed to Maestro Stefano Roselli, a master molder at a ceramics cooperative near Florence. His collaboration with VIETRI and factory owner Franco Ammannati spans nearly 15 years, resulting in a range of exquisite dinnerware, vases, urns, and home decor items that showcase superior artistry.

Inspired by Tuscany

Nestled in central Italy, Tuscany is renowned for its breathtaking landscapes, rich history, and superb craftsmanship. Known as the birthplace of the Renaissance, this region has produced numerous masterpieces, solidifying its place in the world of art. The region's ceramics continue to thrive, maintaining their significance within the cultural fabric of Tuscany.
