Fiori Antichi

Fiori Antichi is understated and painterly. Large, softly shaded blossoms unfold across a warm, textured background, intertwined with delicate foliage and fine branchwork. The palette leans into muted lilac, powder blue, sage and warm ochre — layered rather than saturated.

Unlike structured border designs, this composition is organic and flowing. The florals move naturally across the surface without rigid framing, creating a romantic, almost fresco-like effect.

The subtle crackle-style background and tonal variation give it an aged, artisanal character — less coastal, more timeless European garden.

Hand-painted on solid Mount Etna lava stone and kiln-fired at high temperature, the glaze permanently fuses to the volcanic substrate. The surface remains UV-stable and heat-resistant, suitable for Australian outdoor conditions while maintaining its soft tonal depth.

This design works beautifully in refined garden settings, classic interiors and spaces that favour muted elegance over bold contrast.

Premium Natural Materials

Each tabletop is cut from natural volcanic lava stone sourced from Mount Etna, Sicily. Formed by nature and selected for structural strength, each piece is a solid 3cm-thick stone slab — dense, stable and built to endure. The base is handcrafted wrought iron, finished with a durable fire-painted coating for long-term performance.

Artisanal Decoration Process

The decorative surface is created using traditional ceramic glazes, applied by hand in multiple layers. The pigments are mineral-based and designed to fuse permanently with the stone during firing. The artwork is not applied as a transfer or surface film. Every brushstroke is painted directly onto the stone before firing, making each piece one of a kind. Colours are built gradually through layered glazing techniques. This creates depth and movement within the design, rather than flat surface colour.
After painting, the table is fired in a kiln at extremely high temperatures. This process vitrifies the glaze, permanently bonding it to the lava stone and creating a hard, glass-like surface.

Weather & UV Resilience

Once fired, the glazed surface becomes highly resistant to UV exposure. Colours remain vibrant even under the prolonged Australian sun. Lava stone naturally tolerates high temperatures, and the kiln-fired glaze further enhances its thermal resistance. In addition, the vitrified glaze creates a sealed, non-porous surface. This makes the table resistant to moisture, humidity, scratches and general outdoor exposure.

Bespoke Customisation Options

When placing your order, you may include a customisation request for the selected design. This can include adding specific decorative elements, adjusting colours to suit your interior or outdoor setting, or incorporating a short inscription in a nominated area of the table.
After your purchase, our team will contact you to review the request in detail. Production will only commence once the custom design has been confirmed and approved by you.

Heritage & Handcrafted Production

Production takes place in Vietri sul Mare, a region known for centuries of ceramic craftsmanship. Each table is painted by skilled artisans — not printed or mass-produced.

Secure International Shipping

Each table is secured in a custom-built wooden crate for international transport, ensuring safe shipment from Italy to Australia.
Free shipping is included Australia-wide on all made-to-order tables.

Care & Maintenance

Our lava stone tables are highly durable, low-maintenance, and ideal for indoor/outdoor use, requiring only simple cleaning with warm water, pH-neutral soap, and a soft cloth.
