Chamotte – which takes its name from the raw material made of crushed ceramic fragments, embedded in raw clay to strengthen ceramic mixtures – is a project dedicated to pure colour. The collection is entirely handcrafted and presents a range of artisanal surfaces with a tactile texture, that enhances the natural beauty of ceramics, suitable for indoor spaces.

Mono Bianco, Linea Bianco and Quadra Bianco
Chamotte is produced in the size 7,5x22,5 cm, declined in three variants: Linea, with continuous traits in relief that run through the entire surface, Quadra, where the traits are momentarily interrupted creating a cusp, and Mono, a plain-coloured elements especially conceived to be paired with the previous ones. The collection is available in the colours Bianco, Blu, Terra, Ocra, Nero and Verde with glossy finish. The double-firing technique allowed to further accentuate the richness of the glazed elements, providing exceptional brightness.

Patricia Urquiola, Spanish architect and designer, but Italian at heart, joined the Mutina team in 2008. She designed numerous collections, including Déchirer, Bas-Relief, Azulej, Tierras, Déchirer XL, Celosia, El Lobo, Mater, Chamotte e Jali.
“Chamotte collection comes about from the desire to design an element with great tactile consistency, that highlights the brutal and natural beauty of ceramics. We have worked on volumes, creating a surface full of layers and contrasts, both to the eye and to the touch.”
