About this activity

Vietri sul Mare is a small village in the Amalfi Coast and is particularly renowned for the production of handmade ceramics and majolica by local artisans. The history of Vietri ceramics dates back to the fifth century B.C., but it flourished especially during the thirteenth century, when these products became one of the best-selling accessories of the Republic of Amalfi.

Since the 16th century, not only tiles and kitchen utensils have been created, but also bowls, pitchers and more. Following the persecution of Jews, in the 1930s many foreign artists come to Vietri to offer their art in exchange for a safe place, and this has given new impetus to this ancient tradition. In fact, additional techniques and formulas for decoration have been discovered, as well as a new color such as "yellow of Vietri".

Today in Vietri, ceramics are an integral part of the landscape, and at every corner of the town you can see a craft workshop displaying tiles, vases, trays and many other objects. It is no coincidence that the Amalfi municipality has been named UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997 for the richness of its cultural and artistic heritage.

So why not try this fun educational course on making and decorating pottery in Vietri? During the class, you will be shown every step of the pottery making process and learn the main techniques.

The course will allow you to indulge in decorations while learning the use of the traditional lathe, or torniello, a typical tool of the craftsmanship. In addition, the items created can be shipped, once baked, at the participants' own expense.

Do you also feel like throwing yourself into the fantastic art of Vietrese ceramics? Then hurry up and reserve your spot!
