CERAMICS SHAPED BY STORIES, HANDMADE IN BROOKLYN

TO WEAR, TO USE, TO TREASURE

Welcome to Argilla. In my Brooklyn basement studio, I transform clay into pieces that connect my Italian childhood with the creative energy of Brooklyn. A handmade plates becomes a canvas for gatherings, a custom porcelain ring transforms into wearable art - each one carrying subtle traces of its creation.

My work celebrates the power of handcrafted objects to become part of your story. Each plates, cupcake stand, and piece of jewelry emerges from this ongoing cultural dialogue: where traditional Italian techniques meet contemporary design, where memories of home merge with the rhythm of this city.

With gentle imperfections -evidence of time and dedication- every piece becomes uniquely yours.

“My creations are more than objects; they’re connections. Between maker and user. Between tradition and innovation. Between you and the moments that matter.”
— Marianna Di Giansante

ITALIAN CRAFTSMANSHIP, BROOKLYN MADE

Hi, I'm Marianna Di Giansante, the hands and heart behind Argilla. Every piece that leaves my Brooklyn studio is a labor of love and a small act of rebellion against mass production. My journey with porcelain is one of continuous exploration, pushing the boundaries of this versatile material to create functional art that brings joy to everyday life.
