The Caltagirone Handcrafted Pine Cone, Deep Blue is one of the most iconic symbols of the Sicilian ceramic tradition: the pine cone, the fruit of the pine tree full of seeds and life, has for centuries been the symbol of prosperity, abundance and good fortune that the artisans of Caltagirone shape and decorate by hand with unrivaled skill. Available in heights from 15 to 40 cm (5¾" to 15¾"), it adapts to any space without ever losing its decorative strength.

100% Handcrafted Ceramic
For almost 20 years Sofia La Maiolica of Caltagirone has been involved in the artisanal production of unique majolica pieces, decorated and modeled by hand. They are inspired by the classic style of Caltagirone ceramics from all eras, made with unique glazes that recall the origins of the oriental world in which the colors were produced by the fusion of kaolin-based glazes. The manufacturing process that leads to the creation of our ceramics is divided into six important phases:
Turning, Drying, First firing, Enamelling, Decoration and Aging .
For each of these phases we dedicate the utmost care to every detail so that the final product is the result of a unique, inimitable and unaltered work over time. The main feature of purchasing a non-industrial product is precisely this: owning a unique product .
