Incense burner

Inspired by Etruscan ritual objects seen at the Museo Nazionale Etrusco di Villa Giulia in Rome, Lucus reinterprets the form of a ceremonial container as a contemporary incense burner. Carved in peperino, the object is composed of a rounded base and removable domed cover. When closed, it reads as a compact sculptural form; when opened, the interior reveals the incense holder and ash chamber within.

A hazelnut tasting ritual from Tuscia, Italy.

Gentile Altar brings together two expressions of the Tonda Gentile Romana hazelnut — a cold-pressed hazelnut oil and a 100% hazelnut paste from Azienda Agricola Profili — presented with a carved peperino serving piece designed for tasting and use at the table.

The peperino altar transforms the pair into a small domestic ritual: a place for the oil, the paste, bread, and a serving knife or spoon. Once the products are finished, the stone object remains, intended to be reused over time as a serving piece or ritual object in the kitchen or on the table.

Rooted in the material culture of Tuscia, Gentile Altar reflects the Officine Petrucci approach to food and objects: utility, permanence, and a contemporary sense of ceremony.

Peperino bowl

Trottola is a large sculptural bowl in peperino, developed from an earlier tilted bowl design and reinterpreted by Cardenio Petrucci at a more substantial scale. Its inclined form creates a sense of balance and movement, while the thick walls and volcanic stone give the object greater mass and permanence.

Designed as a functional centerpiece or fruit bowl, Trottola combines a simple circular geometry with a deliberately off-axis posture.

Material: Peperino

Dimensions: Ø 30 cm

Peperino vessel with roasted Tonda Gentile Romana hazelnuts

A larger vessel carved from local peperino, with a rounded body, articulated neck and cork closure. Its proportions draw from Faliscan and Etruscan pottery, translated into the weight and texture of volcanic stone.

Faliscus is presented filled with roasted Tonda Gentile Romana hazelnuts, grown in Corchiano in the Agro Falisco area of Tuscia. One of the characteristic hazelnut varieties of northern Lazio, the Tonda Gentile Romana connects the object directly to the agricultural landscape from which both its material and contents originate.

The hazelnuts are produced by Azienda Agricola Profili in Corchiano, where they are grown, harvested and prepared locally.

Together, peperino and hazelnuts bring two expressions of the same territory into a single object: volcanic stone shaped by hand and a crop cultivated in the surrounding landscape.

Small peperino vessel with hazelnut dragées

A compact lidded vessel carved from local peperino, inspired by the proportions of small Etruscan and Faliscan containers. Its rounded base, fitted lid and central knob translate an ancient vessel archetype into a contemporary object.

Vignale is presented filled with Tre Cioccolati dragées made in Corchiano by artisan chocolatier Monia Achille. At their center are Tonda Gentile Romana hazelnuts, coated in three successive layers of white, milk and dark chocolate of Madagascar origin.

The hazelnuts connect the piece to the agricultural landscape of northern Lazio, while the chocolate introduces another layer of local craftsmanship. Together, the peperino vessel and its contents bring stone, food and artisanal production into a single expression of Tuscia.

Peperino bottle holder

Named for the Via Amerina, the ancient route that crossed the Agro Falisco, Amerina is carved from solid local peperino to hold a 500 ml bottle of olive oil.

Its reduced cylindrical form is deliberately architectural, treating bottle and stone as a single composition. The volcanic weight and texture of peperino give the object a sense of permanence while keeping the gesture itself simple and functional.

Designed around the Officine Petrucci 500 ml olive oil bottle, Amerina can remain in use as a permanent table or kitchen object after the bottle is replaced.
