Combining simplicity and elegance for your home and
Garden...
In the Renaissance era, when colored glazes were
produced by introducing a variety of minerals into the
clay (such as iron oxide for green, ferric oxide for
yellows and browns), green and yellow were the most
popular tones, because these pigments were the most
easily attainable.
The Scavo Collection (excavation) products are
manufactured to express the simplicity of the everyday
pottery used in the Renaissance time.
Perhaps the most important feature of our
'Scavo'
collection is the unique, heavily distressed look
created by stained paint and uneven glazing.

Particular
research and attention was paid to reproducing the
shapes of this collection. All are derivatives or exact
copies of vessels found in medieval history books. Each
piece is then hand-finished with our exclusive
'Old-World' patina, to further emphasize the look of a
genuine antique. Fully glazed inside and out, they hold
water and are great for arranging flowers, but they are
manufactured 'For Decorative Purposes Only'. |
