What exactly is the charm of Bordallo Pinheiro ceramics?

The heritage of the Bordallo Pinheiro brand

Raphael Bordallo Pinheiro was one of the most important figures in Portuguese society in the second half of the 19th century, at least in the part that tended towards art. Among other things, together with his son Gustavo Bordall Pinheiro, he was at the birth of a company dealing precisely with the production – or rather the artistic creation – of ceramic objects. The Bordallo Pinheiro brand is one of the most important in its field, its products adorn homes all over the world and you can find company stores in Paris and Madrid in addition to Portugal.

Bordallo Pinheiro ceramics are produced in the town of Caldas da Rainha, about 75 km from Lisbon, and the processes they use here are fundamentally traditional, some of them even several centuries old. It goes without saying that high-quality production processes make every single piece of Bordallo Pinheiro ceramics a unique piece of high artistic value, the only one of its kind in the world.
