Hand Made Brick Ovens for Homeowners
Our true brick pizza ovens are hand-made by Marcello Becuzzi in a workshop outside of Pisa. We first noticed these ovens at a number of building supplies stores in Tuscany, where they are often sold right next to our refractory ovens. We met with Sig. Marcello a number of times before deciding to sell and support his ovens. He is a gentleman who is dedicated to his craft, and says with pride that he knows how to make a free standing oven dome, without using internal supports -- like Brunelleschi's Duomo in Florence. Sadly, he doesn't allow anyone to actually watch him work. We finalized our decision to sell his ovens in the U.S. after a discussion with the manager of our local building supply store. He loves Sig. Marcello's ovens, and recommends them to all his customers. |
