Astier de villatte

Benoît Astier de Villatte and Ivan Pericoli founded Astier de Villatte in 1996. Following the tradition of the great 18th century Parisian ceramic studios, they employ Tibetan artisans to create their charming, one-of-a-kind ceramics in black terracotta with a milky white glaze.

Lightweight and fragile-looking, the pieces are both strong and durable and wholly unique. They are now one of the last major studios in Paris keeping this tradition alive.

Alongside their ceramics, Astier de Villatte make scented hand care products, incense and candles. 

Our inventory is constantly refreshed. 

Special orders are encouraged.

I spy with my little eye one of my favorite little plates by Astier de Villatte/John Derian. This image is from the October 2023 issue of World of Interiors. It has been mistakenly described as a Fornasetti, but I can spot an Astier de Villatte piece almost anywhere.😉 These wonderful “eye” saucers, cups, and teapot are available in the shop.
