When Susan, Frances, and their mother, Lee Gravely, took their first trip to Italy in 1983, they fell in love with the colorful, handcrafted dinnerware from Vietri sul Mare. As they watched the artisans paint, glaze, and fire each piece by hand, they were inspired to share the treasure they had discovered. Today, VIETRI offers fine Italian ceramic dinnerware and décor for the home or garden, all handmade and painted in Italy.
