From Casarialto Glass to Casarialto Atelier

"Born and raised in France, I have been studying, discovering, and meeting masters of Italian craftsmanship for over twenty years now. Moved by the desire to collaborate and help artisans enhance their visibility, I am launching a new project of co-creations that combines creativity and savoir faire in a series of exclusive pieces. I collaborate challenging and encouraging them to create something completely new and unique, an object they have never made before.”

This is the feeling that motivated Catherine Urban to kick off the CASARIALTO ATELIER project

08 - Trittico

Discover "Giù in Cortile" and "Giù in Giardino", the eighth co-creation project of the Atelier Casarialto together with the artist Michela Urban. Inspired by Japanese screens and enriched by the creative direction of Catherine Urban, these one-of-a-kind pieces were conceived to create metaphorical windows onto the natural world through the artist's original use of materials and colours. Michela Urban is a highly skilled artist who continues to experiment with new techniques to express herself through original combinations of volumes, materials and colours. He channeled his passion for ancient Japanese screens into the creation of these one-of-a-kind, nature-inspired, hand-painted pieces on gold leaf grounds.

07 - Tornasole

BreathGeneration is a project for monitoring, analysis and data processing of air quality. Air pollution is a real problem that can no longer be ignored. The first step has to arise from the awareness of the individual. This need has given birth to Tornasole, an instrument that not only analyzes the air and its components, but is also an aesthetic and decorative object handcrafted from Murano glass.

04 - Mirror Trays

This set of trays embodies the perfect combination of Eastern minimalism and ultra light design, with a meticulous milling enhancing the tropic-inspired details skillfully cut by Giovanni, the artisan of Venetian glass mirrors. These tropical-themed motifs do not usually belong to the Venetian tradition, they are a modern and exotic accent introduced by Catherine to create a harmonious blend of traditions and inspirations.
