In the early 1990s, Costanza Paravicini and her sister set out to find a dinner service for their home. Finding nothing to their liking in Milan's shops, they decided—with their shared talent for drawing—to craft their own plates. The learning curve was steep. Costanza recalls spending nearly two years experimenting, discarding countless flawed ceramics before achieving her vision. Then came the first orders. In a perfect twist of irony, they spent so much time crafting plates for others that they never did finish their own.
The workshop eventually settled at Via Nerino 8, in a hidden courtyard of the Milanese palazzo where Costanza grew up (her first studio was a nearby garage). Today, her daughters have joined the adventure, bringing their own experience in design, fashion, and events.
In the rooms framing the courtyard, the fine white earthenware is still shaped and finished piece by piece, then decorated by hand, mixed media, or printing. You won't find conventional white dinnerware here. Instead, collections bring together serpents, jugglers, hot-air balloons, chinoiserie, florals, zodiac signs, and baroque motifs, while bespoke creations allow for custom colors, drawings, or personal monograms.
