Italian Ceramics
Italy has a rich history of high-quality ceramics going back hundreds of years starting with the Etruscans, who were the first to produce ceramics in Italy. The word ‘ceramic’ comes from the Greek word ‘keramos,’ which means clay. Several cities are known for their ceramic artisans. During the Renaissance, Tuscany and Umbria became famous for ceramics, and in Sicily, the traditional tiles were produced. Each region claims to have the best ceramics. But like all things Italian, each region has its own specialty.
