31 Days of Orvieto: Day #23 – ARTISIANS…AGAIN
August 23, 2015 by orvietoorbust
There are so many wonderful, traditional craftsmen and women that I want to to be sure to showcase in these last 10 days of the project. Meet Alberto Bellini: Famous terracotta ceramicist, who I believe arrived here in a time machine from Orvieto’s medieval past. Step into his shop, La Corte Dei Miracoli di Alberto Bellini on Piazza Ranieri, and be transported back in time. You can read about Alberto in this 2012 article for Italiannotebook. http://www.italiannotebook.com/local-interest/shop-miracles/

Orvieto or Bust: 
Well Toni, it worked. Drawn by your “Orvieto Digest”, we just booked our flight yesterday. 6 nov-16 nov. Planning 5 or 6 days of it in Orvieto. Will be our third vIsit. Other times have stayed at the Virgilio and Villa Mercede. This time might check with Angela Bergkotte first.
We had just about decided on a northern Italy trip for late next spring but Orvieto called! Thank you.
Hi Fred. So happy to hear I was able to lure you in again. Hope to see you – I leave for the US on the 15th so we might just cross paths.
