Pair of satin Moorish heads, with an octane turban, dove-colored face and gold details. They are made of Sicilian artistic ceramics, entirely handcrafted and painted by master ceramists.  

They stand out for the elegance and originality of the decor, for the beauty of faces and details. 


 

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 Moorish 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 Moorish head could come to life and speak.
