The Testa di Moro (Sicilian Moor's Head) with Turban H 25 cm, Monochrome Blue is a variant of the classic H 25 with the headdress wrapped as a turban in the monochrome blue version: the draped shape of the turban and the uniform deep blue create a sculpture of great contemporary essentiality, in which the complex form of the headdress emerges in all its sculptural strength thanks to the uniform colour.

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 .
