Cecilia Geninatti was born on February 25, 1998, in Turin.
In July 2020, she graduated with honors in Interior and Furniture Design from IAAD – Istituto d’Arte Applicata e Design in Turin, where she developed a strong passion for interior design and furnishings.
In 2022, she lived in Florence, working at Ginori 1735, where she had the opportunity to refine her skills in ceramic design within one of Italy’s most prestigious manufactories.
In November 2023, she completed her training as a Ceramicist Technician in Faenza, further immersing herself in the art of ceramics.
A passionate black and white photographer, Cecilia enjoys capturing landscapes and textures, exploring the unique nuances offered by film grain.
She currently lives and works in Turin, Italy.
Circe is an artisanal venture I created to combine creativity, sustainability, and quality. Every phase of my work is marked by a strong focus on waste reduction, reusing scraps, and optimizing resource consumption. The waste materials from the ceramic processes are reintegrated into the production cycle, minimizing environmental impact. The use of innovative machinery allows me to optimize resource usage while maintaining high-efficiency standards.
My work is the result of years of in-depth study of ceramic technology and hands-on experience in Italian artisan studios. Ceramics, with its vast aesthetic and technical possibilities, allows me to create unique objects and home décor pieces that combine functionality and beauty. Each piece begins with an idea, which takes shape through sketches and drawings, then evolves into a prototype, and finally into the finished product.
For me, color is one of the most fascinating aspects of my work. Each shade carries emotions, memories, and sensations. Achieving the perfect color combination requires a long phase of experimentation and study, as ceramics is a science based on complex chemical balances. Every creation is the result of formulas, trials, and continuous refinements, where even failures turn into discoveries and progress.
The production process is slow, and this ensures a level of quality and customization that only craftsmanship can offer. The care and dedication I invest in each piece guarantee that every product is authentic, unique, and crafted with the utmost attention to detail.
