Upon entering churches and ancient palaces in our area, it often happens that one encounters wonderful terracotta floors.
They are very special terracottas, a deep pinkish color and interwoven with small fragments ranging from ivory to terracotta in color.
These cottos tell the story of everyday craftsmanship carried out by mixing the main local clays, which presented within them everything that nature offered: impurities, fragments of different clays, small pebbles... thus, what was once simply the fruit of what the soil offered, over the centuries has been transformed into a very precise material, as part of a code, able to provide us with the historical perid of reference of the construction itself.
After centuries, we decided to give our historic terracotta a voice again.
This cotto was born to be aesthetically akin to the cotto of our ancestors, but loaded with all the pluses of CottoZero.
A cotto so precious and with such a special color could only be inspired by a woman and a love story; thus, in our kilns "reborn" historical Piedmontese cotto dedicated to "Bella Rusin."
DETAILS:
The Cotto Storico Piemontese collection is the result of research into locally produced antique terracotta. It presents a particular colouring enriched by small inclusions of varying sizes in tones ranging from ivory to red-brown.
During brushing operations, it is possible that some inclusions generate small holes on the surface that will be filled during the grouting of the material.
