Ceramiche Sberna: A Legacy of Handcrafted Excellence from Deruta, Italy

For over a century, Ceramiche Sberna has been at the heart of Deruta’s world-famous ceramic tradition, producing exquisite hand-painted pottery that embodies the elegance, passion, and heritage of Italian maiolica. Founded in the early 20th century, the Sberna family workshop continues to be a cornerstone of authentic Italian craftsmanship, blending classic Renaissance designs with a timeless artistic sensibility.

Located in Deruta, Umbria—a hilltop town known since the 1500s as a center for Italy’s finest ceramics—Sberna is celebrated globally for its intricate patterns, bold colors, and dedication to traditional techniques. Every piece is hand-thrown and hand-painted, using mineral-based glazes and lead-free materials, then kiln-fired to achieve the vibrant, long-lasting finish that defines true Deruta pottery.

Sberna’s most iconic designs include the Raffaellesco, Ricco Deruta, and classic Ornato motifs, all inspired by Renaissance frescoes, mythical creatures, and the natural beauty of the Umbrian countryside. Whether it's a charger plate, vase, candlestick holder, or complete dinnerware set, each Sberna creation reflects a commitment to artisanal integrity and aesthetic excellence.

Passed down through generations, Ceramiche Sberna remains a family-run studio, where skilled artisans work side by side to preserve the legacy of Deruta while offering stunning, heirloom-quality ceramics to collectors and lovers of Italian design around the world.

At Biordi Art Imports, we are proud to feature authentic Sberna ceramics—pieces that don’t just decorate a space, but tell a story of Italian heritage, artistry, and soul.

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.
