A Century of Craftsmanship and Creative Excellence

In the quiet hills of Umbria, between Perugia and Assisi, lies the town of Gualdo Tadino — a place long devoted to the art of ceramics. It was here, in 1925, that Mastrogiorgio was born, named in homage to the 16th-century master Mastro Giorgio Andreoli, a pioneer of lusterware and refined decoration. What began as a collective of passionate artists has grown, over the past hundred years, into a symbol of Italian artisanal excellence.

Mastrogiorgio’s legacy is rooted in precision, patience, and beauty — values carried by generations of craftsmen who have shaped the identity of our tableware. Each piece is handcrafted by a small, dedicated team of artisans whose skill and intuition reflect decades of expertise. This human-scale approach ensures that every object is not only functional but also soulful — a quiet celebration of Italian culture at the table.

For over five decades, until 2024, under the clear-sighted and committed leadership of Laura Clementi, Mastrogiorgio transformed from a decorative ceramics atelier into a benchmark for refined tableware. Laura brought a deep respect for craftsmanship together with a rigorous approach to quality, leading the company through changing markets and opening it up to international recognition. Her vision preserved the artistic soul of the manufacture while securing its place in the global landscape of high-end ceramic production.

Central to this pursuit of excellence is our use of B40, a premium ceramic body sourced from one of Italy’s finest suppliers. Known for its strength, finesse, and resilience, this material allows us to achieve both exceptional durability and a silky, refined finish. From shaping to glazing, every step is carried out with care, ensuring that the integrity of the material is preserved and elevated by the hand that crafts it.

Today, under the leadership of Nadège Marini-Carriere, owner & Artistic Director and Jean-Noël Gaillet, owner associate, Mastrogiorgio enters a new era — one that honors its roots while embracing innovation in design, pigments, and processes. Timeless yet contemporary, every Mastrogiorgio piece tells a story of heritage, craftsmanship, and the Italian art of living. It’s not just tableware — it’s a statement of elegance, authenticity, and artisanal pride, crafted for those who appreciate beauty that lasts.
