Wine cooler made from earthenware by Italian Nicola Fasano.
This charming wine cooler adds a stylish and personal touch to any table setting. Cool your wine by filling the cooler halfway with cold water and/or ice. The cooler can, of course, also be used as an elegant detail for serving red wine, which doesn’t need to be chilled, or as a vase.
The cooler is handmade and features a glaze that withstands daily use. Its charming design adds a soft and elegant feel to any table setting. The hand-painted surface makes each cooler unique, with subtle variations in color and texture. Small imperfections and irregularities are a natural part of the traditional craftsmanship, contributing to the cooler’s timeless character.
The Tradizionali series is a symbol of traditional Apulian ceramics and can be found in most homes in Apulia. With its hand-painted, characteristic pattern of blue flowers framed by two thin brown lines, the sturdy ceramics provide a rustic touch that immediately brings to mind an Italian family dinner among olive groves and lemon trees.
The lines are painted by placing the ceramic on a rotating plate, controlled by a foot pedal, where light brush strokes create delicate lines while the plate rotates. The blue flowers are applied individually with a small stamp. This creates variations that make each detail special. Each plate is unique, with each brushstroke adding a personal touch and creating variations in the design.
Earthenware is dishwasher-safe at lower temperatures, but hand washing is recommended to preserve the item’s original finish and extend its lifespan.
