Refined Moor's Head in Sicilian artistic ceramic. He has a face in satin black, an antique white turban, red knobs and details in pure gold.

It stands out for the beauty of its face and details, combined with the brilliance of pure gold and the silkiness of ceramic.

My emotion:

As a child, in the garden of my uncles' house in Palermo, to decorate the entrance to the avenue covered with grape pergolas, there were succulent plants that came out of pots in red terracotta, in the shape of a Moor's Head. Every time I passed by, I looked at them with a mixture of restlessness 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 alive and speak.
