Testa Di Moro And Testa Malandrina Set Of 2 Gold And Silver Vases

An exquisite showcase of craftsmanship enhanced by a striking contrast of hues, this stunning set of two vases depicts a male (Moro) and a female (Malandrina) busts boasting a silver and a golden finish respectively. The craftsmanship of both pieces follows the traditional methods of the Sicilian town of Caltagirone, shaping the clay on a lathe and firing it at 980°-1050° for 10-12 hours, then drying it at room temperature and enameling it by hand.
