Terrae by Quintessenza

The authentic essence of earth and the power of matter.

Terrae is a 3×6 cm porcelain stoneware collection that tells the story of its origins in earth through its multiple textures, nuances and depths. Its lightly textured surface recalls wet clay, shaped by the slow and incessant action of water and wind, that models uniquely soft and natural forms over time.
Inspired by natural materials and nature’s creative processes, Terrae combines neutral, textured colours with sophisticated finishes and decorative details, for distinctive, authentic environments.

The colour palette is a sensory voyage through warm, mineral tones.
– Calce, a soft, luminous white that bestows lightness.
– Arena, a sand tone as warm and immersive as a desert.
– Creta, a natural hue that evokes cosy solidity.
– Lava, a deep black with hints of red.
– Arida, a decoration with a natural, irregular, distinctively textured pattern that reproduces the cracks typical of hard, dry earth.
– Ossidia Bronzo, a warm metallic finish that adds precious reflections and a contemporary dimension.
– Aluna Argento, a bright, cold luminous finish for elegant, refined spaces. With Terrae, ceramics become an authentic material that fuses together tradition and innovation.
