The beautiful rustic aesthetic of this rectangular ceramic baking dish is the result of one of the world’s most ancient ceramics techniques. Coiling (or colombino in Italian) involves layering up long strips of clay by hand to create the desired shape. And this shape is so desirable that you can place it directly from the oven onto the dinner table.
Because coiling is performed by hand, each item is entirely unique. And when something is lovingly handcrafted by a dedicated lifelong artisan, using such a wonderfully natural material as clay – the finished article couldn’t feel more authentic or more pleasing to use, admire and enjoy.
Established in 1954 by Gino Tapinassi, Ceramiche Tapinassi is today run by his sons, who from childhood absorbed his passion for handcrafted ceramics.
Variations in finish or appearance are not considered imperfections, but are the mark of a unique handmade item.

Use & Care
Before you use this item for first time, immerse it in warm water for at least four hours.
For best results, we suggest you soak it for at least three minutes before each use, and use it when it is still wet. This allows a better cooking process and an easier clean afterwards.
All Tapinassi cookware can be used over any direct source of heat, including an open fire. If you are using it over an open fire or gas ring, we advise that you use a flame distributor or diffuser.
Being ceramic, this item should not be subjected to excessive thermal stress. Very cold liquids should not be poured into a very hot vessel.
We recommend that you use wooden cooking tools rather than metal ones.
This item can be cleaned in a dishwasher or with a sponge and washing-up liquid. Let it dry in an open rack before storing it in a cupboard.
