Handmade Terre Mêlée, Schizzato, and Mochaware Ceramics

At Reed Smythe, we carry many kinds of handmade ceramics, but three traditional pottery styles stand out: French terre mêlée, Italian schizzato and British mochaware. Our terre mêlée urns, vases, plates and planters come from the South of France, where the marbled clay technique originated. Our schizzato spatterware is made in Puglia, and our large terra cotta planters come from Tuscany. Our mochaware cups, bowls and vases are hand-thrown by potters in the Southern United States, carrying on a decorative tradition that began in Britain. Each piece is one of a kind, perfect for collectors and for gifting.
