The Legacy of Grazia: Master Ceramists of Deruta, Italy

In the heart of Deruta, Italy—a town revered for over 500 years of ceramic excellence—the name Grazia stands as a beacon of artistry, heritage, and timeless Italian craftsmanship. Grazia Maioliche, founded in 1500, is one of the oldest ceramic workshops in Italy, continuously operated by the same family for over 25 generations. Today, it is celebrated across the globe as a symbol of authentic, heirloom-quality Deruta pottery.

Grazia’s story is deeply rooted in the tradition of Italian maiolica, a style of tin-glazed pottery that flourished during the Renaissance. In the Grazia workshop, every piece is handmade and hand-painted, following the same meticulous methods passed down through the centuries. The result is a collection of ceramics that are not only functional but true works of art—each one telling a story of Italian culture, craftsmanship, and beauty.

Among Grazia’s most beloved motifs is the Green Rooster design, a folkloric symbol in Italy said to bring luck, protection, and prosperity to the home. Often used in traditional wedding gifts and household treasures, the Green Rooster captures the heart of Deruta’s artistic legacy while adding a rustic, joyful spirit to any kitchen or table.

From dinnerware and platters to mini pitchers and wall plates, every Grazia piece is crafted with lead-free glazes and vibrant mineral pigments that remain brilliant for generations. No two are exactly alike, as each bears the unique brushstrokes of the artisan who created it.

At Biordi Art Imports, we are proud to offer authentic Grazia ceramics, carefully curated from one of the most prestigious ceramic houses in the world. Whether you're starting a collection or adding a rare find, Grazia pieces are treasured for their museum-quality beauty, deep cultural roots, and enduring elegance.

Bring a piece of Deruta’s living history into your home with Grazia—the true art of Italian ceramics.

Italian ceramics are heirloom quality products, and can last lifetime with proper care. We have some suggestions that will preserve your majolica for years to come.

Majolica is dishwasher safe, but many people choose to hand wash their pieces as a precaution. Because majolica is a porous material, some pieces are not meant to hold liquid for a long period of time. Check for warning labels before ordering a product, as the pieces that are most notorious for "sweating" are appropriately labeled.

Majolica is sensitive to extreme temperatures, specifically boiling or freezing liquids. Pouring water with a rolling boil directly into a teapot, for example, may lead to breakage. To avoid this, temper the object. The industry standard is 620 degrees Celsius (1,148 degrees Fahrenheit). Quench the glass to cool it.

Crazing is common in well used majolica. The tiny cracks in the glaze do not affect the functionality of your majolica.

Majolica hand-crafted products should not be microwaved, as it may crack and/or break the ceramics.
