Studio Le Nid was born on the slopes of Etna in the 1960s as a craft workshop, created by the master Barbaro Messina for the processing of handcrafted majolica tiles. Today it is a company that exports majolica all over the world without ever forgetting the cornerstone of its origins: the desire to privilege the hand-made approach that brings its creations closer to art design and the search for beauty in every detail. The tiles and floors of Studio Le Nid are the result of skilled and passionate hands that know how to transform into material the suggestions of a beautiful land in which the black of Etna lava is accompanied by the fragrant green of citrus groves. The contrasts of Sicily have always inspired Studio Le Nid which, combining tradition and innovation, manages to create pieces of a contemporary classicism. The majolica tiles are made on Etna lava stone and on manual Etna terracotta and these materials of the ancient Sicilian ceramic tradition are transformed into unique objects, examples of a culture and a lifestyle.
