Located in Faenza, Italy, Pantoù Ceramics is a brand of artisan ceramics and contemporary design founded in 2020 by Ilaria Biffara and Giampaolo Santoddi. The idea to open a ceramic bottega was born in 2015 in Caltagirone, a renowned center for ceramic art in Sicily. These two young ceramists were born and raised in the midst of the local bottegas of Caltagirone, leading to their research, experimentation, and desire to recreate this ceramic tradition with new forms and colors. Pantou Ceramics is dedicated to continue to grow and push boundaries while collaborating with new artists and artisans. Since 2018 it collaborates with established ceramic brand Bottega Vignoli whom it shared the studio in a coworking relationship, from 2020 to 2022. In September 2022, Pantoù established its laboratory located in the historic center of Faenza. A space open to the public in which Ilaria and Giampaolo project, produce and sell their ceramics.
