Viúva Lamego in partnership with The Agência Manicómio, launch an exclusive collection:

This edition comprises an artistic intervention in three pieces by the artists Anabela Soares, Joana Ramalho and Cláudia Sampaio.
It is a collection limited to 25 pieces by each artist, made in old mockery, with hand painting, by the artisans of Viúva Lamego, in a tribute to creativity and art. The model chosen for this edition is the same used in Viúva Lamego's old faience services.
Founded in 1849, Viúva Lamego is today the biggest reference in the production of tiles in Portugal and has always had a strong connection with art. It was from this close collaboration with plastic artists, architects and designers that unique and striking pieces were created over decades. Today, with the ‘Partir a Loiça Toda’ collection, tradition and modernity are merged, through the creativity and perspective of the Manicomio's artists.
