This handsome Adone moors head is decorated with an elegant fumè black and white finish. 

He has been created following the strict rules of maiolica production - turning, drying, first firing, glazing, and ageing - and hand-decorated with a very particular fume finishing that provides him with a deep sense of nostalgia of ancient times.

Our Adone, with his beautiful fume finishing and his Arabic shapes, shown in his bold and distinctive middle eastern features, on his own or placed alongside the female version in the range, Afrodite, will make an exquisite addition to any home or outdoor area.

The baroque shape and the white and black finish provides an intense harmony to the entire ensemble.

He is made with unique glazes that recall the origins of the Arabic world in which colours and whites were produced by the fusion of kaolin-based glazes and represent the perfect showcase of the classic Italian ceramic of Caltagirone modelled by hand.
