Castelli, a small village in the province of Teramo, has been, over the centuries, one of the largest centers for the production of ceramics. The collection exhibited consists of 151 selected masterpieces of the great Castelli masters active between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries, including Francesco Grue, his son Carlo Antonio Grue, his grandson Francesco Antonio Saverio and others, such as Gentili, Cappelletti and Fuina, ordered chronologically, and displayed in the main rooms of the house.
