Descripción
My wife Jeanette is a ceramic artist and I (Jan ) work as a sculptor in marble. We just finished a 3 year rebuilding program and now we have to maintain the buildings and garden.
Our place is near Ostuni, Puglia Italia. It covers 2 hectares of olive trees and fruit trees, some of the olive trees are more than 800 years old. The premiums consist of two buildings: a guest house in an olive mill and a converted stable being our villa. Underneath the guest house, there is a cave in which we have our ateliers. The Masseria is from the 16th century.

In our atelier, you have the opportunity to learn the skills of ceramics as well as the basic skill of sculpturing.
