In the Bottega dei Cocci - Terracotta Laboratory

Fratte Rosa, is a "small town but with a strong heart", this territory has been for centuries the nerve center of the production of terracotta objects, thanks to the large presence of clay.

The art of clay forging and decoration comes from the earth that lets itself be shaped into a wonderful journey into the past, between water, earth and fire.

Itinerary

My name is Giovanna and in my “cocci” laboratory, an ancient dialectal term referring to terracotta, you will begin your own experience with forging, modeling clay using the various techniques, wit, mold or freehand. You can then decorate the object after immersing it in the glaze, choosing the decoration technique between freehand drawing, dusting or stencil mask.

At the end of the workshop you can enjoy some local delicacies.

The combination of the four elements, earth-water-air-fire, combined with the hand of man, will allow you to live an authentic experience, etched forever in your object.
