About Castles In Ceramics Chombo cha Maua, Bakuli la Kutolea Chakula
Castles in Ceramics ni chombo cha maua cha kauri chenye vipande vinavyoweza kutenganishwa, ambacho pia hutumika kama vyombo vya mezani. Chombo hiki kimeundwa kwa sehemu nne zinazopangwa juu ya nyingine kwa uimara na usahihi wa kuungana. Kikiwa kimefungwa, kipande hiki hufanya kazi kama kitu cha mapambo kwa ajili ya meza na makabati ya kuhifadhia vyombo, au kama chungu cha maua. Kikiwa kimefunguliwa, sehemu hizo nne hugeuka kuwa mabakuli na vyombo tofauti vya kuwekea matunda au chakula kingine. Kila sehemu huundwa kwa kutumia mashine ya kusonga (lathe) au ndani ya mfumo wa jasi, kisha hupakwa rangi kwa mkono kwa kutumia mtindo wa asili wa Castelli. Chombo hiki kinaweza kuoshwa kwa mashine ya kuosha vyombo na kinaweza kuchomwa kwa joto tofauti kwa matumizi ya chakula.

The project is completed by a marketing plan that wants to connect small handicraft shops with the international public. - Inspiration
- The great tradition of Ceramics of Castelli is our inspiration. An excellence with centuries of history, which could be found in the tableware of the most important ruling dynasties in Europe.
In our project, ceramics are revitalized to give a contemporary dimension to this tradition: modularity, ease of use and timeless design, with unique hand-decorated pieces, one by one, which are brought directly to our tables from the museum. - Project Duration
- The project is based on the city of Castelli, an enchanting village located about 150 km from Rome, under the slopes of Mount Gran Sasso. A place of great artistic and scenic beauty, Castelli boasts a centuries-old tradition in the field of ceramics. The operational plan of the project is to develop the local production of the product and bring it to diffusion in the sales channels within 12 months.
