L'Antica

L'Antica Deruta has been one of the superior Majolica manufacturers for years. Established over 50 years ago, the l'Antica Deruta artisans continue to produce some of the best hand-assembled products using age-old techniques originated from Roman times of Deruta and Umbria. During our visit with Georgio Moretti, third generation owner and current office manager, we discovered that the tiles used for the chairs and tables produced by l'Antica Deruta come solely from the Umbria and Tuscany countrysides. These tiles, used within the tables of the Cotto & Pietra collection, have already been tried and conditioned to withstand the test of the elements across time, and are suited for both soft indoor as well as rugged outdoor use. The hand-made decorations and inlaid works are a testament to the procedures established by the Masters of Deruta, and are unique and exclusive. These vintage, classic pieces are available in a wide variety of styles, shapes and sizes to suit a multitude of uses and applications both indoor and outside. Georgio indicated to us during our visit that due to the size and weight of his tables, transportation takes up to 2-3 months outside of Europe. However, after seeing these tables first-hand, we are certain that each is well worth the wait as they will last a lifetime!
