This splendid handmade Orfeo Testa di Moro Vase is painted with decorative elements in vibrant red and blue colours.

He has been created following the strict rules of the maiolica production

Turning, drying, first firing, glazing, and ageing - hand-decorated in vibrant red and blue colours with a superb neckless and on his crown resembling prestigious red rubies. On his own or placed alongside the female version in the range, Euridice, he will make an amazing addition to any home with his elegance and beauty.

The classic palette of our Orfeo, dominated by blues and reds and big, bold designs exudes a sense of warmth and cheer that feel as if they could only exist in Sicily.

The orange base and the red jewels create an intense contrast with his beautiful face, providing harmony to the entire ensemble.

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