A Story of Beauty. Over Time.
There has always been a vocation that has influenced,
permeated and driven every action behind Ceramica
Sant’Agostino: a calling for Beauty.
Beauty in aesthetic and practical terms, first and foremost.
Beauty that has distinguished our journey and our image,
starting with the essence and leading to the very fruit of this
Beauty: the Product.
One-of-a-kind products, that have identified models and begun
trends in the creation of designer tiles; which have, over Time,
made our Trademark synonymous with and a guarantee of
quality and exclusivity, reliability and exceptionality; that have
been proudly imitated, introducing stylistic evolutions in the
market of ceramic surfaces.
However, this vocation not only requires, it demands, elevated
and constant commitment, that does not admit distractions
or compromises. An integral commitment that involves every
single person and every single resource in our company. Every
single day. Our attention and perseverance are always high, they
never wane.
A vocation, as we were saying, that stems from much earlier:
from a unique place, Ferrara, a distance from major ceramic
production centres, making it, one might say, pure, neutral, free,
“discordant”. And a city, namely Ferrara, the capital of a great
history of power, art and culture: the Estense Duchy, homeland
of Humanism and especially the Italian Renaissance, homeland
of great artists and scientists, and intellectuals, from Mantegna
and Tiziano to Boiardo, Ariosto and Tasso, to Copernicus and
Bembo, thanks to patrons such as Ercole I d’Este, Duke of Ferrara.
Time has led this heritage and vocation dedicated to Beauty
to the present date and to us, the protective heirs of a
tradition which, since the great Ferrara of the Renaissance,
has continuously striven towards innovation, in the pursuit of
absolute, perfect, eternal Beauty that is impervious even to
Time. Time, who is, on the other hand, the true great witness
and guardian responsible for forever preserving its historical,
artistic, cultural, social value: in a word, human.
