Francesco Boria

Ceramic Artisan - Caltagirone, Sicily

Close-up of a handcrafted Sicilian ceramic Moor head featuring the artisan signature of Francesco Boria from Caltagirone and colorful traditional majolica decorations.

Francesco Boria is a ceramic artisan from Caltagirone, the historic heart of Sicilian ceramics.

Each piece begins as raw clay and is shaped slowly by hand, following techniques passed down through generations.

His work reflects the rhythm of the Mediterranean: patient, imperfect, and deeply human.

  • Clay

    Raw clay is prepared by hand, becoming the starting point of each piece.

  • Shaping

    The form is shaped slowly on the wheel, where balance and proportion are defined.


  • Hand Decoration

    Traditional maiolica motifs are painted by hand with patience and precision.

  • Firing

    Through two firings, glaze and color fuse together, creating depth and luminosity.
