ANNA MARIA RUTA – ANTICHE, PICCOLE, MA PREZIOSE FABBRICHE DI SICILIA

13 Novembre 2021

The paper traces the history of two small but significant Sicilian ceramic factories, active in the last century, producing some valuable artefacts, now hard to find: the Coniglione and the Vella. Some well-known artists worked in them, who signed plates, vases and other artifacts with icons referable to their major works. Caltagirone, one of the best known Sicilian ceramic centers, Catania were the places of production. The research on Coniglione also revealed some interesting ceramics, the model of which is to be attributed to the futurist Pippo Rizzo. Today it remains only to regret its disappearance.
