Vietri Campagna Collection Olive Oil Bowl

Please give our vendor up to two weeks to ship this product.

Complete your Vietri tabletop with this sweet, petite bowl: It’s designed for serving olive oil or your favorite dip. Inspired by pastoral southern Italy, every unique ceramic piece from Vietri’s flagship Campagna collection features a playful hand-rendered painting of a horse, rooster, cow, pig, fish or bird, plus vibrant wildflowers or bright coastal algae native to the area. Terracotta, locally sourced from the Amalfi Coast, has been used for Italian ceramics for centuries: the first pieces were dried in the sun. Today, Vietri’s artisans make the Campagna line the same way ceramics have been made for 500 years, but instead of using the sun’s heat to set each piece, each one is fired in a kiln. Careful control of the kiln’s temperature influences each unique piece’s shape and glaze colors. The Campagna line’s cheeky name refers both to the line’s inspiration—“campagna” is Italian for “countryside”—and Vietri’s origins in Campania, a rural, coastal region of southern Italy.

Clay found in Italy, particularly Tuscany, is famously durable and historically was used for utilitarian ends, like roofing tiles or bricks. However, despite being coarser than other clays that are popular for tabletop ceramics (like porcelain), terracotta lends itself well to serveware, taking on glaze and shape beautifully to become heirloom quality platters, bowls and the like.
