Tassi Ceramics, Again!

The other morning we stopped by our favorite ceramic shop in Deruta, Tassi.  We wanted to pick up something for the Umbrian gift basket we're preparing for our hosts in Switzerland, and we also wanted to have a look at what's new in the shop.

Every time we visit we look at the designs, the shapes,  the colors.  We discuss where we could put each piece.  Maybe we could hang this one on the wall.  Or how about putting that one on a stand on the sofa table?  Or maybe that one would look great in the china cabinet.  We're not ready to make a final decision yet, but with wall space and display space being limited, we're hoping to make the right decision.  We both know we'll love whatever piece(s) we choose, and the process is so much fun!

Here are some of the pieces we saw today.  Right now we're leaning towards the "Grigliata" design, but I love love love the gray/gold/terracotta design as well.  The blue and white patterns are a custom order, and that's something we could have done too.  Decisions decisions!

I think clicking on the photos will allow you to see them larger - at least I hope so!
