MAJOLICA LEONE FONDO ROSSO Collection |

The central motif of our all new Majolica Leone features
the renown 'Leone di Montelupo' (The Montelupo’s Lion)
that, surrounded by its heraldic stemma, has been the 'emblema' of the
'Montelupo Fiorentino' area where the
original Tuscan Majolica are manufactured since he XV
Century.
Montelupo Fiorentino is located just on the
outskirts of Florence and the world known Chianti
region.
You can actually feel the consistent (almost raised)
body of the painting when gently passing your hand over
decorated parts. Due to the complexity of both
preparation and painting, this technique is now used by
very few artisans, which makes these items very hard to
find. |
