What is the typical motif of Sardinian ceramics?

In Sardinian ceramics, decoration has evolved slowly from ancient geometric and abstract patterns to the acquisition of more “figurative” styles in later centuries. Among these, motifs related to the agropastoral world are not missing, such as the classic Sardinian peacock, a symbol of rebirth due to its resemblance to the phoenix. At the same time, both the ancient techniques of surface engraving for decorative purposes and the enamel coating have been passed down, refined with delicate “brush” decorations that convey the soft charm of floral themes.

How to integrate Sardinian craftsmanship into the decor of a modern, minimalistic home?
For the living room, you can match vases, suitable for the dining table, with ceramic lamps that provide soft variations of light to the room, combined with strategic wall sconces for passage areas.

For a more artistic touch, you can complete the ensemble with small ceramic sculptures. Among these, the characteristic colors of raku ceramics stand out—this is a Japanese clay firing technique now well-established in the production lines of artisan workshops. These innovations are accompanied by traditional figurative sculptures, such as, a unique representation in the landscape of Sardinian artistic craftsmanship, where the Holy Family wears the island’s traditional costumes.

For your kitchen, you can draw inspiration from Sardinian ceramic tradition, whose decorations are characterized by a simple taste, and the shape of the artifacts maintains a practical, sober, and harmonious style.
