Caleca - The Italian hand-painted ceramics

Caleca Dinnerware

Caleca has been manufacturing quality ceramic products for more than 200 years. Each piece is manufactured in Italy from a unique red clay found only in the region of the original Caleca factory, the pieces are then hand painted in the United States by skilled artisans. The special manufacturing process and high firing temperatures create a ware that is much more durable than typical European earthenware.

Just recently, Caleca Italia has reached a milestone in developing a new low porosity, extra strong, but lighter ceramic body comparable to stoneware, vitreous and porcelain, rendering the Caleca products highly resistant to chipping and prolonged usage. Born from an antique tradition of over two-hundred years, realized from the most modern system and created by artists of diversified nationalities, the Caleca products are the fruit of a perfect fusion of tradition, good taste and technology.

All pieces are dishwasher and microwave safe, lead and cadmium free, and oven safe to 400°F.

  • Hand-painted in Italy: casual, bright, festive

  • Heavy, chip-resistant stoneware

  • Dishwasher-safe for easy clean-up
