The lifeblood of Giovanni De Maio ceramics courses through its production lines.
That lifeblood comes from the vision of tiles as an art form; as if Nature had urged the artist to celebrate its existence in them, as if a town had asked
man to tell its story though them. This vision is what Giovanni De Maio has committed himself to for over four generations, working constantly, as though
upholding a silent promise. The ceramics are the very image of the Mediterranean brightness that always served as a background to the business’s own
history. They express the bustling life of a town that, with its narrow Mediterranean roads, its white houses and its craft shops, has always nurtured the soul
of Giovanni De Maio ceramics: Vietri sul Mare, the first sparks of the visual explosion that is the landscape of the Amalfi coast.
