BARREL by ARTWORK ITALIAN HERITAGE
The iconic oil drum becomes an interior design item with multiple uses and a green spirit
The appearance is that of an old metal barrel, but the essence is much more. Barrel is a multifunctional accessory inspired by the industrial style and is part of the Artwork collection. It is an unconventional interior design item suitable for the multiple needs in functional and iconic spaces.
Barrel can be a free-standing washbasin, with floor or wall outlet, but it can be easily transformed into an original bioethanol burner. It is a modern and elegant furnishing alternative to traditional fireplaces because it offers the advantage of being environmentally friendly. Barrel is also available as a lamp thanks to an optional lighting kit and an artistic element (a kind of lampshade) that recalls the sinuous movements of a burning flame.
Barrel is a real tailor-made creation that – reinterpreting an object of common use and surely present in the iconography of our daily life – acquires a different value becoming the perfect interior design item that gives new light and a new identity to spaces of all kinds, both indoors and outdoors.
The purest ceramic gives shape to this product, which is proposed in many variations in the catalogue, but which can also be customised on request to become a unique object and a timeless icon.
Barrel is available in a total of 16 finishes, including glossy and satin and metallic shades for original mirror effect results and 4 precious colors such as gold, red gold, silver and platinum. Upon request, it can be customized and become a piece of furniture without equal. All finishes are applied with manual processes that enhance the craftsmanship and the exquisitely Italian style of the product.

- Chi è Artwork Italian Heritage
Artwork Italian Heritage is a brand born from the many years of experience and the great manufacturing capacity of Kerasan, a leading company in the production of ceramic sanitary ware.
The Artwork collection is the essence of creativity, like a project in which art and design coexist for a mutual increase in value. A concept that is pure synergy between functionality and legibility, two qualities that characterise the design, the style and distinctiveness at the base of a work of art.
What best represents the uniqueness of Artwork Italian Heritage is the perfect balance between form and function, between beauty and use.
Artwork is created and developed thanks to Kerasan’s skills and dexterity in working ceramics which is almost inherent in its DNA: the Artwork ceramic objects also tell us of an immediate and fresh creativity aimed at producing a collection of iconic elements capable of characterising and redefining any type of space with their identity, from the most sophisticated private homes to public infrastructure facilities.
The Artwork ceramics are intended for refined customers who love original and dynamic style, as well as those particularly inclined at creating environments with distinctive traits around themselves.
