Orchard Ovens

Orchard Ovens The Orchard Ovens Family have brightened UK gardens for decades. As fifth-generation Anglo-Italians, WHY CHOOSE AN ORCHARD OVEN? The truth? Our ovens do.

Our philosophy is to supply customers with nothing less than
we accept ourselves. Our Tuscany-sourced, artisan-built and
DEFRA-approved ovens are built by the fire-brick specialists,
Valoriani, using only material Italians trust. Cooking in a wood oven is a science, requiring first-class
thermal conductivity and excellent insulation. Oven shells
should be cool to both observe and touch. Oven floors should
be almost ‘seamless’. They should relish incredible
temperatures. Others don’t.

Today is Republic Day in Italy and a great reminder that the Margherita pizza was created to celebrate the Italian flag, in red (tomatoes), white (mozzarella) and green (basil).

If you want to create gourmet pizza, of any kind, at home, you need a truly authentic Italian oven. Why not take a look at our Valoriani ovens, built by artisans and the world's leading pizza oven specialist, in Tuscany?

On National Sorry Day, be sure not to be sorry about the pizza oven that you purchase.

A wood-fired oven can be involve a sizeable spend, so make sure you spend your money wisely.

To make the most of your hard-earned cash, you need an oven that will:

- be with you for very many years
- be made from materials that are fit for purpose
- be safe to use
- give you the reassurance of Defra certification
- suit your goals - you don't want to quickly outgrow it!

Here's one reason why Valoriani ovens tick all these boxes and stand apart.

Sometimes, they may seem a little more expensive than others, but the adage of 'you get what you pay for' can be true. At other times, comparably priced ovens are glistering but not gold.

As we say, don't be sorry. Having a wise head on your shoulders makes sense.

On , if there were ever a museum of pizza ovens, this Valoriani brick would probably be exhibited in it.

Valoriani created the first pre-fabricated pizza oven in the world, channelling skills acquired by the Valoriani family - refractory clay specialists since 1890, the year Pietro Valoriani first established a factory making bricks, vases and similar items.

The oven devised by Valoriani has never been surpassed in its performance and its materials - including unique 'cotto' clay - and the artisanship shown in production remains first-class.

Valoriani has its place in pizza oven history. Maybe its time you found a place in your garden, or indoor kitchen, for one of its world-renowned ovens?

It's baking outdoors here - why not discover all the fun yourself?

At the start of Sun Awareness Week, do remember good sun safety practice, if you are an Orchard Ovens' customer. Why? Well, because you will use your Valoriani oven far more than you thought, cooking outdoors, entertaining al fresco and enjoying multi-generational family time around the oven, as you all get involved.

When you can cook everything from your canapés (like the ones we rustled up in the photo) to your desserts in your wood-fired pizza oven, you will perhaps understand why it pays to be sun aware. You will find yourself spending a lot of time outdoors.

Of course, if you want a nice sunny spot for your oven, a south or south-west facing one is best.
