Nativo is a washbasin with pure and simple shapes, conveying an evocative and alienating gentleness.‎ The peculiarity of the washbasin is expressed by the new relationship between the small surface area and the vertically extended basin, connected to the wall by a high attachment, leaving behind it a kind of tail.‎ With its characteristic thickness and deep interior, it resembles a hollowed tree trunk where the 'bark effect' is obtained through the application of a special patented Glaze developed within Azzurra's R&D department.‎ This is because Nativo also stems from the company's desire to work on a new type of highly innovative glaze, which is single-fired and able to maintain the chemical and physical characteristics of the classic white-gloss finish.‎It is applied for the first time on Nativo, and will be extended also to the other top-range collections and certain special products.‎“The name 'Nativo' pays tribute to the land of the industrial area of the province of Viterbo, which produces the majority of sanitary ware in Italy.‎ Yet it is also a reference to an ancient form that expresses something natural and deeply rooted in our past: that of the hollowed log.‎ Its inspirations begin with the maritime pine trees encountered while travelling from Rome to Castel Sant’Elia, the company's headquarters”Giovanni Levanti.‎
