The Rubino Family laboratory

Spending a day as a craftsman means experiencing the handicraft experience at first hand

The Rubino family opens the doors of their workshop to us: an extraordinary and suggestive world, unknown to many but at the same time incredibly familiar, where since 1900 clay and terracotta has been worked by expert craftsmen. Together with Rosa we will discover the history of this ancient workshop through its generations, and with Salvatore we will discover materials, spaces, tools and products of his work. The Rubino company works clay with ancient methods, becoming the guardian of an increasingly rare art, that of stazzunaru. Spending a day as a craftsman means living the experience of manual work first-hand, putting oneself to the test and testing one's creative abilities, knowing in depth the particular gestures of a tradition. Here you will know the secret of clay, on the one hand the raw material of an artisan production devoted to rurality and furnishing accessories; on the other hand, a silent witness of centuries of history, among ancient faustics, festive banquets, solemn recurrences, sumptuous and difficult everyday life.

The ancient historical quarry

Working the clay and creating a small souvenir made with your own hands.

The laboratory is set inside an ancient limestone quarry, which after extraction has been transformed by adapting the spaces to production requirements. After a tour, we will go into the clay processing with the appropriate equipment, and then conclude the experience with a small unique souvenir created with our own hands. With the same energy that transforms clay in the sun, you will immerse yourself in a place that emanates history, art, culture and love from every corner.
