Antique satin white Moor's Head, with acanthus leaves, in Sicilian artistic ceramics, entirely made and hand-painted by master ceramists.
It stands out for the elegance and originality of the decoration, for the beauty of faces and details.
Measures 43 cm in height.
Also available in the male version.
My emotion:
As a child, in the garden of my uncles' house in Palermo, adorning the entrance of the avenue covered by grapevines, there were succulent plants spilling out of red terracotta pots, shaped like Moor's Heads. Every time I passed by, I looked at them with a mix of unease and fascination. It seemed to me that a form of life had crystallized in those strange objects and that at any moment the Moor's Head could come to life and speak.
