Vietri Campagna Collection Pasta Bowl

Regular price $64.00
Color/Design

These hand-painted ceramic pasta bowls from Vietri’s flagship Campagna collection are a playful, heirloom-quality addition to any tabletop. Inspired by pastoral southern Italy, every unique piece features a whimsical hand-rendered animal motif. Choose between a horse, rooster, cow, pig, fish or bird, plus vibrant wildflowers or bright coastal algae native to the area. Serve pasta in Vietri’s Large Serving Bowl and dish it up in these mix-and-match, dishwasher-safe bowls. Terracotta, locally sourced from the Amalfi Coast, has been used for Italian ceramics for centuries: the first pieces were dried in the sun. Today, Vietri’s artisans make the Campagna line the same way ceramics have been made for 500 years, but instead of using the sun’s heat to set each piece, each one is fired in a kiln. Careful control of the kiln’s temperature influences each unique piece’s shape and glaze colors. The Campagna line’s cheeky name refers both to the line’s inspiration—“campagna” is Italian for “countryside”—and Vietri’s origins in Campania, a rural, coastal region of southern Italy.

Dimensions: 8.75" Diameter

Materials: Hand-painted Terracotta Clay

Mix and match your pasta bowls with each unique, whimsical style. Pair these with the Vietri Campagna Collection Large Serving Bowl Platter to serve pasta or soup.

This piece is dishwasher-safe, but wash the Campagna collection in a lightly loaded dishwasher, arranged to avoid touching other dishes, with a nonabrasive, unscented detergent. Dry thoroughly before storing. This piece is also microwave-safe. Natural clays may get hot in the microwave: Always use a pot holder when handling microwaved Campagna dishes and allow them to cool slightly before removing form microwave. Do not place this piece or other Campagna dishes in the microwave without food or liquid.

The gold standard of terracotta comes from Italy.

The gold standard of terracotta comes from Italy.

Literally translating to “baked earth” in Italian, terracotta typically refers to red-tinted earthenware made from porous clay. Clay found in Italy, particularly Tuscany, is famously durable and historically was used for utilitarian ends, like roofing tiles or bricks. However, despite being coarser than other clays that are popular for tabletop ceramics (like porcelain), terracotta lends itself well to serveware, taking on glaze and shape beautifully to become heirloom quality platters, bowls and the like.
