Buto is a limoges porcelain mug.
Society Limonta Ceramics is a new and innovative collection of ceramic tableware produced in a limited edition by Society Limonta. It originates from the same desire of exploring new matters, which has always characterized the unique and refined home couture collections by Society Limonta. Artisanal handcrafted ceramic pieces, which complete the textile collections for the table, adding a natural and sophisticated touch.
Onda and Buto are two collections of dishes with a pure and minimal design, made in Limoges ceramic and stoneware in a warm and neutral colour palette, from a sandy beige to a white cream shade. Some pieces have a pleasant inner texture, created by applying a linen gauze over the soft clay, which gives an interesting visual and tactile feeling: a delicate fabric effect imprinted into the ceramic surface.
The stoneware dishes are made with a particular finishing known as “terra sigillata”, based on a very ancient technique very rarely used in our days, which allows to create matt surfaces with a characteristic tactile experience. Every single piece is strictly handmade with artisanal care. The exact opposite of mass-market production: unusual manufacturing processes, never banal nor standardized, which each time produce one and only pieces created by Italian artisan masters.
The new ceramic collection by Society Limonta designed by Beatrice Rossetti, multiplies its possible combinations playing with the fabric of a tablecloth or the best quality porcelain, mixing the nuance of a place mat with the colour of a saucer, or the soft consistency of fabric with the shape of a dish.
