Amalia Costantini is an Italian pizzaiola and entrepreneur, widely recognized as a leading figure in contemporary pizza. In a traditionally male-dominated field, she has built a distinctive path, bringing a refined, personal vision that combines sensitivity, discipline, and strong identity. With a background in art and fashion, she has developed a unique style in which pizza becomes both a visual and gastronomic expression, with creations designed for balance, harmony, and  aesthetic impact. In 2015, she founded Mater, introducing a concept that redefines the traditional pizzeria through natural sourdough fermentation, rigorous ingredient selection, and a modern, thoughtful approach to pizza. 

For over a decade, she has pursued a consistent and innovative research path, anticipating trends that are now increasingly influential in the global pizza scene. Her work has earned significant accolades and widespread recognition at both national and international levels. Today, she continues to develop new projects across hospitality and creative formats, guided by a clear vision: to unite aesthetics and ethics, transforming pizza into a language of identity, beauty, and authenticity.
