Ceramiche Refin | Cera

A new collection of surfaces that recreates the visual and tactile effects of wax and the transformation of this material

A highly sensory surface that has emerged from observing and experimenting with an ancient, everyday element: wax. Called Cera, the Italian word for wax, this new product from Ceramiche Refin translates the visual and tactile sensations derived from working with this material, along with its transformation processes, into stoneware finishes.

The result is a pattern with great depth, where small cracks, cavities and marks – that reproduce the effect that results from the pouring and subsequent solicitation of wax – from a distance seem to dance on a background that alternates light and dark areas while from close up they reveal a universe of details and nuances.

This effect is also heightened by the colour range made up of three dusty shades – Luce, Fumo, Incenso – while the special CeraSilk surface finish conveys the fluidity of wax to the touch with its soft and silky feel.
