The art of making ceramics has seen its flourishing in Italy when the Ancient Greek potters transplanted their thriving activity along the coasts of Southern Italy. This activity, assimilated by the local Etruscan and Italic potters, gave rise to a tradition, rich in productive and creative ideas.

Peasant Village pieces were made in several countries, including France, Italy, and even the U.S. Mittledofer used the PV logo beginning in 1928 and I believe they continued to use it through the 1960’s. The parent company, Mittledorfer Strauss, remained active into the 1970’s.
