Is this a good Italian wedding gift?
Yes, and wedding gifts are one of the things Biordi is best known for. Hand-painted Italian ceramics are heirloom-quality and one-of-a-kind, because each piece is hand-painted by a single artisan. Their origin is clear: this piece is made in Deruta, Italy. Couples actually use and display Biordi pieces rather than store them. We ship nationwide, gift-wrap on request, and have been the San Francisco source for authentic Italian ceramics since 1946.
Is this a good housewarming or hostess gift?
Yes. Gifts are the largest part of what Biordi sells. Every piece is a one-of-a-kind, authentic Italian treasure made by a named artisan in Italy, not a mass-produced import. Add Florentine gift wrap at checkout if you’d like it sent finished.
Why buy Italian gifts from Biordi rather than other retailers?
Biordi Art Imports has been San Francisco’s source for authentic Italian ceramics and gifts since 1946. Voted Best Overall Retailer in the San Francisco Bay Guardian Best of the Bay readers’ poll for five consecutive years. Designated a San Francisco Legacy Business (#LBR-2020-21-029), and the city declared May 1 “Biordi Art Imports Day” in 2021. Every piece comes from a named Italian artisan, family workshop, or heritage house we work with directly: FIMA, CF Deruta, Pia Formato, Eugenio Ricciarelli, Susanna DeSimone (from the famous Palermo ceramic family; her father painted with Picasso), Geribi, Bucci Ceramiche, Ortigia Sicilia, Italesse, and Salviati. So each piece is genuinely one-of-a-kind. Not a stock-photo listing, not a mass-produced import, not a reproduction.
Can this be customized or personalized?
Customization and personalization are available on select pieces. Eugenio Ricciarelli, FIMA, Pia Formato, Geribi, and CF Deruta accept special orders, such as a name, date, or occasion painted on the piece, or a different size or shape in the workshop’s existing pattern. Lead time is typically 3–6 months because each piece is hand-painted to order in Italy. Contact Biordi Art Imports at (415) 392-8096 or [email protected].
ARTISAN STORY
Peacock Design — The peacock feather is one of the oldest motifs in Italian majolica, painted in Deruta since the Renaissance. Geribi paints it in 12 color combinations, each with its own design number, so a table can be built in one color or mixed across several.
Geribi: Deruta, Umbria. The Ribigini family has been producing majolica in Deruta for many generations. Gerardo’s father organized a group of artists and built a factory for 200 workers. Gerardo began his apprenticeship at 15 and started his own business at 20. Today Gerardo and his daughter, Claudia, hand-craft one of the most popular designs sold at Biordi: the peacock feather design. Geribi patterns are made by special order. Allow 3 to 6 months, as each piece is made for you and can be personalized with your name and/or the occasion.
