A truly unique manufacturing process, Florence Glass Atelier is mouth-blown and hand finished by artisans in a Florentine foundry. Each piece is individually made using time-honoured forming and decorating techniques, where special embellishments are applied directly to the glass during manufacture.

The Florence Glass ATELIER® was inspired by embedding the philosophy of the fashion world into product research. The focus lays on enhancing crystal material by reflecting colours and textures found in today’s fashion and interior design industries. The result is durable, hygienic and fashionably beautiful bath wares.

Within the Pittella collection exists a stunning and unique selection of Italian made Florence Glass ATELIER® vanity basins.

Cristallo De Medici is one of the most opulent and cutting­ edge crystal design materials handled only by glass artisans. It is pure crystal that has 24% lead content. The dazzling attributes of Cristallo De Medici are what you might find in royal jewels – they include high grades of clarity, cut, and carat.

Products that are made from this luxurious crystal are mouth-blown and bevelled in stone by master artists scribing to the most ancient and noble glass arts from the famous ‘glass island’ of Murano. It is believed that glassmaking in Murano originated in 8th-century Rome and has had a long standing appreciation to this day.

Pittella offers a striking Cristallo De Medici benchtop vessel that mimics the attributes of a perfectly sculptured diamond.

VetroFreddo® is an incredibly innovative material composed of glass pigments and resin. It is extremely versatile, offering boundless shapes and designs – in fact, the only limit is imagination when it comes to this durable and heat resistant material.

It comes in a huge range of colours in transparent, semi-transparent or opaque form thanks to the inherent composition of glass pigments. Cleaning a VetroFreddo® is made easy with soft sponges and non-granular soap. You can even gently rub on some olive oil to aid any superficial scratches.

Pittella stock a selection of VetroFreddo® counter top basins which suit any contemporary application.

Teknoform is a polymer based material that mimics a variety of textures including mosaic tiles, stone, marble and timber.  This is achieved through the composition of stone powder and resin. The benefit of this amazing feature is that it creates beautiful textures found in nature without the associated costs and ongoing maintenance.

The advantages for artisans working with polymer based material is that it allows for precision. It also allows the designers to be more experimental, more defined and sculptural, all the while producing a finish that replicates the look and texture of a natural surface.

Pittella’s Teknoform basins address the trend toward minimalist and natural surfaces in bathroom fittings. These basins are sealed after manufacture allowing for easy cleaning with the wipe of a damp cloth.
