Elegant pair of matte white and satin black Moor's Heads with pine cones, made of Sicilian artistic ceramics. They are handcrafted and painted by the master ceramists of Caltagirone. They fit well in a modern decor.
They measure 45 cm in height.
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.
