The Cappello Prete Plate Etna Landscape Blue and Orange brings to one of the most iconic forms of Caltagirone ceramic the most vibrant Mediterranean contrast: cobalt blue and orange. On this 40 cm / 15¾" piece, hand-painted by the master ceramists of Sofia Ceramiche, the Etna Landscape dominates the centre in a chromatic interplay that highlights the volcano's profile with unique vitality.
Blue and orange are among the oldest combinations of Caltagirone majolica: the blue of sky and sea, the orange of sun and Sicilian fruit. On a Cappello Prete plate they become a decorative piece of great character, ideal for hanging on a wall in spaces that seek colour, identity and authentic craftsmanship.
Every piece is decorated by hand by the master ceramists of Caltagirone Sofia and fire-signed as a guarantee of artisan authenticity. Production times may vary as each piece is created to order.

The creation process of our ceramics is divided into various meticulously cared-for phases, ensuring that every finished product is a unique and eternal work of art.
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 .
