Ann Skidmore formed Arte Italica in 1997, as a response to her love of Italian history, culture, art and especially vintage pewter. Finding it difficult to acquire in the United States, she began importing this fine Italian pewter. Soon, she was designing and importing handcrafted ceramics, glass and bronze. In 2000, Ann and Arte Italica became the first to combine pewter and ceramic into beautiful and unique dinnerware and accessories. And at COVER STORY, every Bridal Registry we have includes Arte Italica! Arte Italica makes a beautiful, heirloom quality gift.

SAVE 20% IN BOTH OUR LOS ALTOS & LOS GATOS LOCATIONS.  During this special event we will be featuring Arte Italica in all our fabulous table settings, with expert advice on how to make your holiday table amazing with beautiful Arte Italica. To help you start or add to your collection, we offer 20% off all ARTE ITALICA, including special orders, internet sales and registry gifts! To cap off the evening, we have over $500 of door prizes.

We will begin pre-sales on Monday October 15th, sale ends Friday, October 19th.
