Pair of Moorish heads in Sicilian artistic ceramics with a marine theme, crafted and hand-painted. The charm of the sea is also suggested by the beautiful emerald, green, and turquoise colors or by the turquoise and coral variant, enhanced by details in platinum and pure gold.
They are made of Sicilian artistic ceramics, crafted and hand-painted by the master ceramists of Caltagirone.
They stand out for the beauty of the faces and details, combined with the brilliance of the colors and the velvety brightness of the ceramic.
Measures 50 cm in height.
They are sold both in pairs and individually.
The architect's advice:
This splendid pair of Moorish heads lends itself to becoming the focal point of a marine-themed setting: majestic for their height and for the beautiful colors in the cool range, or alternatively warm, they blend with typically Mediterranean decor. Perfect in a lit niche or on a piece of furniture in a privileged position.
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.
