CESARE VILLARI
Since 1967 VILLARI is handcrafting porcelain in Italy at 70 km from Venice. The founders Cesare and
Silvia VILLARI are sculptors. They mould themselves the models and prototypes, employing ancestral
techniques of modeling in clay. A team of master artisans faithfully reproduces the sculptures in
porcelain and sets the petals of the flowers one by one, to ensure the excellence of each flower.
Cesare and Silvia have transmitted this passion for porcelain to their children: Barbara,
Alessandra and Leone. The new generation is combining expertise with creative audacity
and is developing new must-have collections for truly lovers of elegance, style and glamour.
The Arte collection is born taking inspiration from the animal world. Leone VILLARI
has modelled himself in clay the first prototype of each sculpture, balancing shapes
and volumes. The master pieces are then faithfully reproduced in porcelain. The use of
Swarovski Crystals creates an unique sparkling effect. In the final stage, Leone VILLARI
covers the sculpture with thousands of Swarovski Crystals, with their conic shape they are
perfectly encrusted into the porcelain. A range items comes in a Limited Edition number,
each sculpture is numbered and signed by Leone VILLARI and comes with a certificate
Leone VILLARI has examined the difficulty in achieving perfection with this collection.
The ancient ‘language’ of porcelain is used here to express original and modern contexts,
still within its formal classicality.

Born in 1981, Leone VILLARI has grown up next to his family’s porcelain factory and has developed his innate artistic
talent alongside his over flowing imagination. For this collection he has focused on the harmony and balance of shape and
volume of each sculpture. Every detail is hand made by master craftsmen using traditional techniques for the modelling and
decoration. Graceful postures and the alliance of porcelain and Swarovski Elements gives the sculptures a highly artistic aspect.
Леоне Виллари родился в 1981 году и практически вырос на фабрике, с детства развивая свой природный артистический талант
и фантастическое воображение. В работе над этой коллекцией он опирается на гармонию и на пропорциональные формы
и размеры животных. Каждая деталь прорабатывается мастером вручную, с использованием традиционной техники
моделирования и декорирования, которую он перенял от родителей. Изящные позы животных, а также альянс фарфора
и кристаллов Swarovski придает фигурам высокохудожественный вид. Каждый кристалл Swarovski наносится вручную.
