CRITA - with the well-marked r that cannot be more Sicilian - like clay that becomes an indispensable raw material for our creations, like the land that saw us born, like Sicily that made you fall in love. This dream was born from the idea of a group of friends, Davide and Livio, Sicilian by birth, and Matthias, Austrian by birth but Sicilian by love. Crita comes to life from our desire to experiment with new aesthetic forms anchoring us to the tradition of a city whose name alone has the power to evoke lathes, glazed ceramics, bright colors, sinuous lines and Moor's heads: Caltagirone. The millenary mastery in forging living and evocative objects, which in Caltagirone can be breathed in every alley of the city, is the basis of every single piece we give life to. Our goal is to bring a more cosmopolitan and contemporary vision, enriching tradition, if possible, with our globetrotting experiences. We have done without frills, to emphasize the shapes, colors and essence of these artifacts. As if the Sicilian Baroque spirit and the restless soul of this south wanted to meet and merge with the linearity and simplicity of the north, in a collective embrace with Europe, its history and its peoples.
