The Medusa Testa di Moro (Sicilian Moor's Head) H 25 cm / 9¾", Mother of Pearl with Blue Beads is one of the most expressive pieces in the Ceramiche Sofia collection: the Medusa, a symbol of protection in Sicilian tradition, emerges from a head of snakes, in a mother of pearl finish enriched with hand-applied blue beads. The contrast between the iridescent depth of the mother of pearl and the intense blue of the beads creates a visual effect of great chromatic depth and Mediterranean mystery.

Q&A

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 .
