Ciao a tutti! Hi there!<\/p>\n

If you opened this page and feel like learning more about us, either you love our blog or you hate it\u2026<\/p>\n

Since we like the first option better, \"Umbria<\/a>we officially invite you to spend some time with us. Ideally in our country house in Umbria, under a vine pergola, slowly sipping a cup of Italian coffee or English tea, pending on the mood and the season. Too bad we can\u2019t. We have to stick to the Internet, which is however a wonderful tool to nurture a friendship. That is indeed how, Manuela and I, Tiziana, have been keeping in touch for a very long time.<\/p>\n

We became friends a long time ago, when we both lived in Rome. We met thanks to our husbands and click \u2026 we liked each other so much that we\u2019ve never stopped talking. When I say talking, I\u00a0 mean serious subjects such as love, life, motherhood, emotions. She left Rome to go to Prague, then London and Singapore. I spent some time in Brussels, Pescara and Geneva. Our friendship survived all the minor inconveniences and major events we had to face as professionals, women,\u00a0 mothers and wives (last but not list, eh, eh) . It even survived thatsArte.com! But that is the best part of the story, so I\u2019ll slow down a bit.<\/p>\n

After a long diaspora, a couple of years ago Manuela and I came to live at acceptable distance. She moved to Perugia, I moved to Viterbo. Not close enough to meet every week, but still, we could plan to spend some time together pretty often. We were so excited! We decided we must exploit this unexpected gift and do something special together.<\/p>\n

\"Manuela<\/a>We both have a lifetime passion for Italian pottery<\/a>, hence the idea to set up a collection of the ceramic items we liked the most and to start a business overseas, where our Italian artistry is not very well know, but still very much appreciated.<\/p>\n

We had a lot of fun together, although I can\u2019t say everything was smooth. Both Manuela and I have a very strong personality and we are very opinionated (I shall say stubborn, to be completely honest). A very hard test for our friendship. Which did survive, as you can see!<\/p>\n

Manuela is a very creative soul. Yet she pays a great attention to details. An uncommon quality in creative people, that does wonders for thatsArte.com<\/a>. We traveled together to choose the items for our selection of Italian pottery and we took more than 10.000 pictures of ceramic items for the site. Manuela edited ALL the ones we feature and in addition she revised all the databases. Now she works on the subjects for the blog articles, she looks for and edits the appropriate images and, as you know if you\u2019ve ever placed an order at thatsArte.com,\u00a0 she is busy with our Customers\u2019 purchases.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m the writer, as you can see, and the \u201ccontact\u201d person. Writing in English is very challenging for me, and I\u2019m sure that my texts must sound very weird to native English speakers. But still, I discovered I enjoy writing and as far as people understand what I mean I keep going.<\/p>\n

We make all the decisions related to thatsArte together. Yet we manage to spend some time talking about ourselves and, most importantly, to enjoy our kids, our taste for good food and good books.<\/p>\n

Thank you for visiting us and enjoy!<\/p>\n

Tiziana & Manuela<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
