Tiberio Gracco was born in 1978 in Torre del Greco, a small town at the foot of Vesuvius. He grew up and still lives in Pompeii, the ancient Roman city destroyed by the volcano. He has been making bonsai pots for about 20 years. He has created a Japanese Garden, where he grows his own bonsai, and a studio / laboratory for the creation of stoneware pots for bonsai. He himself collects the clays and mixes them with others from all over Europe, thus obtaining various types of colours and patinas. He uses the technique of Te-binary (freehand), Tatara (clay plates) and that of the wheel to make his vases. He mainly produces unglazed vases but there is no shortage of enameled vases for kusamono and shitakusa in his productions. In this case, the glazes are obtained from ash which, properly processed and with the addition of oxides, gives the glazes various shades of color.
