Portuguese ceramic factories are famous for their artisanal approach to the craft. Techniques are passed down from generation to generation, imbuing each piece with a sense of tradition and craftsmanship.

Every ceramic factory in Portugal uses a specific clay and glaze recipe, depending on various factors: the regional availability of raw materials, local traditions, the preferences and expertise of the craftsmen... This results in variations in the characteristics and qualities of ceramic pieces between different factories.

While modern technologies and production methods have changed some aspects of production, the artisanal approach remains a key feature of the Portuguese ceramic tradition. The handmade character adds a unique and authentic element. When you run your hand over the surface of the pottery, you can often feel the texture of the process. Every subtle imperfection tells a story. This makes Portuguese ceramics highly beloved by both locals and international art enthusiasts.

The ceramic factories D&M Deco collaborates with are located in and around the sunny Braga. With two dedicated agents on-site, we ensure that everything runs smoothly, from local production to delivery in Belgium. Additionally, we also regularly visit ourselves to monitor the process.

Some D&M Deco collections produced in Portugal include TIDAL, ARRAY, BAMBOO, CARDEMON, SAVORY and ARGAN. In all these collections, you'll find the handmade aspect reflected in the raw and authentic structure. The subtle imperfections make each piece unique.

Despite modern advancements, the artisanal approach remains central in Portuguese ceramic factories. This ensures that the pottery is infused with a unique charm and texture. Each piece in our Portuguese collections, from TIDAL to ARGAN, contributes to the continuation of this rich tradition. We invite you to explore the collections and experience the timeless beauty of Portuguese ceramics for yourself.
