I went to visit a friend in nearby Vicenza and on my first day there, she said, "I need to take you to this pottery store." I didn't think much about it, but once I walked up the steps, I was practically drooling. The colors, the styles, the variety were AMAZING! We walked about for at least 90 minutes just looking at things and touching them. The I decided that I needed some new plates that I knew would color coordinate with my Portmeirion Botanic Gardens pattern. And then I saw a pitcher in the same green. And then I saw ceramic numbers that you can put together to use as your address on your house. I kept seeing more and more things. They will package your things to ship and I think they also ship. My friend's spouse works with the military stationed in Vicenza and she mailed them home to me (I'm waiting to receive the box(es)!! The store is so amazing that I had to make one more trip there before we left and I ended up spending more money. Plus, I knew I wanted to take some photos (see below.) If you are anywhere near Nove and you like ceramics (or like me, THINK you like ceramics,) just stop in one day. Unlike many places, they stay open during the lunch hour(s.) Don't forget cash - they will give you a discount for cash.

A factory-museum that with enthusiasm and passion keeps intact the traditions and the artistic and structural heritage of the ancient Antonibon factory. An Italian reality with more than three centuries of history that, in addition to continuing to produce the timeless forms of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and very limited series of prestigious objects whose originals are in the major international museums and private collections, proposes new products often inspired by nature, like the beautiful flower compositions for cold dinners, small animal containers, fruit, leaves, shells, fish, etc. The farm shop is located in a charming and rich context of charm and hosts tableware and furnishing accessories ranging from unique, highly sought after and hand decorated items, to opportunities not to be missed.
