Ubaldo Grazia Ceramics Deruta, Umbria Italy


Ubaldo Grazia Maioliche Artistiche Artigianali (), the oldest continually owned family pottery in the world. For 500 years the Grazia family have been making fine maiolica, passing down tradition and developing new markets. Today the 25th in line heads the company. Ubaldo Grazia is a charming man and happy to welcome guests to his extensive showroom. The building is easy to find, at number 181 Via Tiberina, as it’s covered in ceramic designs and is clearly the oldest in a strada of modern industrial outlets. Nearly all of Grazia’s wares are made to order from the showroom. More than 80% of their production is shipped to the USA and exacting standards ensure that the works arrive safely.
