ARTISAN STORY The brothers Schittone, Vincenzo and Giuseppe, opened their artistic workshop in 2002 in Sciacca, a beautiful coastal town overlooking the sea in Sicily. Born in Sciacca, they attended the state institute of art "G. Bonachia “. As true artisans in hand-crafted modeling and painting, the brothers are two of our most innovative ceramists. They create unique pieces such as Moor's heads and passionately promote Sciacca a city of Ceramic. The Schittone family of Sciacca represents the enduring soul of Italian ceramic artistry — a lineage that marries heritage, creativity, and craftsmanship. For generations, the Schittone atelier has been known for its distinctive interpretations of the sea, transforming clay into poetic forms that celebrate Italy’s deep connection to its coastal beauty. Every Schittone creation begins in the hands of a master artisan who shapes, glazes, and paints each piece with meticulous care. Their hallmark style — a fusion of natural textures, organic lines, and soft coastal hues — captures the serenity of Mediterranean waters and the timeless rhythm of Italian life. At Biordi Art Imports, we are proud to bring the Schittone Collection to discerning collectors and lovers of Italian art. Each piece embodies the values of authenticity, craftsmanship, and emotion — a small masterpiece that connects the past and present through the beauty of handmade tradition.
