The Mustard Ceramic Owl is a unique, handcrafted creation, crafted entirely by the master ceramists of Ceramiche Sofia . With its warm and vibrant mustard hue, paired with carefully crafted details, this owl interprets Sicilian tradition with a contemporary sensibility and refined design.
In Greek and Roman mythology, the owl was a sacred figure, dedicated to the goddess of wisdom, Athena/Minerva. The owl's eyes and beak follow the line of the letter φ (phi), the Greek alphabetic symbol of philosophy and later of the golden ratio. This letter therefore embodies harmony, beauty, and a love of knowledge and research.

100% artisanal 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 .
