A pair of satin-finished Moor's Heads, with a teal turban, a dove-gray face, and gold details. They are made of Sicilian artistic ceramic, entirely hand-crafted and hand-painted by master ceramists.
They stand out for the elegance and originality of their decoration, the beauty of their faces, and the detailing.
My emotion:
As a child, in the garden of my uncle's house in Palermo, adorning the entrance to the grape-covered driveway, there were succulents growing out of red terracotta pots, shaped like Moor's Heads. Every time I passed by, I looked at them with a mixture of uneasiness and fascination. It seemed to me that a life form had crystallized in those strange objects and that at any moment the Moor's Head might come to life and speak.
