(Ceramiche Artistiche Solimene) of Vietri Marina, located in the province of Salerno, was founded in 1937 by Vincenzo Solimene. After a short period, the production, which consisted of furnishings objects such as floor tiles, coverings and maiolicas in the Vietrese style, was interrupted due to wartime events. Toward the end of the Forties, Vincenzo Solimene, together with his sons Antonio, Francesco and Vincenzino, purchased a large plot on Via Madonna degli Angeli in Vietri. On the architect Paolo Soleri's project, in 1951, the construction of a new and larger factory began, equipped with an imposing wood-fired kiln. In 1956, finally, the activity began in the new factory, adopting the name "Ceramiche Artistiche Solimene", and in 1969 the vast complex of the former "Vetreria Meridionale Ricciardi" was acquired. In the Eighties and Nineties, from the factory ovens were produced some ceramics on project by architect Ugo La Pietra. At the beginning of the Nineties, Vincenzo Solimene, together with his children Giovanna, Antonio and Francesco, acquired an old workshop at Bonea and, two years later, the "Bottega-Scuola di Ceramica Centro Studio d'Arte Vietrese" was created. The top floor of the plant houses a museum space in which are kept, besides works by family members, the artistic creations of those who have collaborated with the manufacture over the years. The manufacture closed in 2005. The decorations, typical of Solimene production, make each piece unique and give the table an elegant and Mediterranean character. Ideal for daily use, for a seaside home or for collectors and lovers of Italian artistic ceramics.
