Arianna De Luca creates collectible ceramic objects that blend Mediterranean heritage with a bold, contemporary aesthetic. Every piece is a celebration of craftsmanship, color, and cultural storytelling - designed for interiors that embrace artful living. Handmade in Italy, each object is more than functional, it is a narrative fragment, a joyful ritual, a modern heirloom.

Arianna was born in Abruzzo, between hills and the sea, in a region that harmoniously combines folklore and nature. After studying Industrial Design in Italy and London, where she obtained an MA from Central Saint Martins, Arianna became captivated by ceramics after years dedicated to interior design. She decided to delve deeper into the rich heritage of Castelli's artisans, in her homeland, where she discovered a world of ancient techniques and processes passed down through generations. With a coherent and personal approach, Arianna honours the local traditions and elevates them into the contemporary realm, enriching her work with a distinctive vibrant and colourful character.

Her objects are real characters, with their own souls and personalities. They become cherished presences, enriched with singular details that evoke multifaceted memories. Paying homage to Mediterranean elements and celebrating the Italian heritage, Arianna's objects stand out in the domestic environment by transforming archetypes of tradition into expressive, colourful, bold figures. Through the careful selection of brilliant colours and primitive forms, supported by a strong artisanal technique, these special inhabitants emanate a powerful energy that seamlessly translates nostalgia and the past into an innovative and distinctive contemporary decor, never boring nor repetitive.
