Beautiful lamp with Moor's head at the base, made of Sicilian artistic ceramics, handcrafted and hand-painted. It is decorated with a mosaic effect and finished in gold. A white shade can also be requested. The version with a female Moor's head is also available.
Moor's head measurement: 45 cm in height
Full shade measurement: about 70 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 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.
