Beautiful pair of yellow pine cones. They are handcrafted and painted by the master ceramicists of Caltagirone.
They measure: cm 22 for the one with the decorated base and cm 10 for the all-yellow one.
My emotion: One of my favorite scents is that which is released from the pine trees, especially at sunset, here in Sicily, and I have always loved collecting the fallen pine cones from their branches, in search of the pine nuts. This would remind me of my grandmother's stories, who told me how the newlywed couple's bedroom was once decorated with these fruits, to wish fertility and abundance, but also because they were the symbol of eternity and the immortality of love.
