ETNA AGAIN ERUPTS!

The exclusive products from the mysterious volcanoes of Vesuvius and Etna come from the company MADE A MANO, which was founded in 2001 in Italy. Its founders were captivated by the beauty of lava stone and had the courage to go against the tide of machine production. At a time of general industrialization, they emphasize the charm of hand-painted details just as much as the small collections intended for a limited circle of exceptional and demanding customers.



Those who find this brand in the Czech Republic will love its products primarily because they stimulate human imagination and awaken a sense of beauty. “The Czech Republic is a beautiful country with great cultural wealth. And our products are created in collaboration with customers, from which new ideas and inspirations often arise. They are the result of mutual enrichment,” say the creators of MADE A MANO, hoping that as Made a Mano enriches Czech architecture, Czech culture will also enrich their ceramics.

This company uses its main business card – lava stones – only for the most exclusive line. Their specialty is custom-made kitchen countertop slabs and other furnishings for stylish restaurants. They also work extensively with glazes and hand-drawn or printed patterns, emphasizing the combination of handwork with modern techniques. The innovative technology developed by this company allows for the realization of a series of various timeless shapes and forms. Each has its own story and meaning, whether we talk about the playful ALFA series that allows for the arrangement of words and entire texts, or the bold NOVECENTO series inspired by ornamental designs of the nineteenth century.

Thanks to the company Archtiles , the gems from MADE A MANO are becoming part of various implementations in the Czech market. You may already recognize them from the unconventional cooking series Diary of Dita P.
