Meet The Artist: Claudia Ribigini

Visiting Via Umbria from Deruta, Italy, Claudia Ribigini is one of four family members that comprise the Geribi ceramics studio, together with her father (Gerardo), mother (Assunta) and brother (Federico). A center of ceramics making since the 1200’s Deruta is known throughout Italy for its traditional and modern designs and artisanal hand painted craftsmanship. Many of the designs incorporated in Geribi’s works were developed by Gerardo as a result of his study of ancient patterns and colors. Let Claudia demonstrate how these designs are sketched and painted onto the beautiful finished works you see throughout Via Umbria and when you purchase your own ceramic, Claudia will put a personalized signature on your piece. $25 per person. 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. For more information or to purchase tickets, please click here.
