Founded in 1979 by Mariano Venzo, Leonardo Carollo and Giampaolo Bresolin, sons of entrepreneurs already working in the ceramics sector. Just over twenty years old, the three boys took over an existing company, active since the 1930s, which already had a rich heritage of shapes, patterns and decorations, still kept in the new factory today. All pottery continues to be made by hand in Nove (pop. 5,000), a town in Veneto, north-eastern Italy.
