About the Item
THE COLLECTION
This collection offers ideas for contemporary décor through sophisticated revelations of art bound to the tradition of ceramics of Caltagirone, objets d’art that combine history and design.
The extreme attention to details, supported by twenty years of experience of master craftsmen, is the company’s strength.
The production technique hides secrets and art mixtures that make the product unique and exclusive. Mosche Bianche chooses to combine art and design to recall history through ceramic artworks in doing so, history revives, as in a fairy tale, an incredible civilization that is the sicilian culture.
The moorish heads in ceramics, tribute to the beauty of ancient Sicily and its traditions, draw inspiration from a legend of love and jealousy set during the arabic domination in Sicily.
A STORY OF LOVE AND JEALOUSY
The legend tells that during the moorish domination in Sicily around 1000, in the arabic district of Palermo “al hàlisah” that a moor who, overwhelmed by a violent passion, declared his love to her. Noticed means “the chosen one”, a sweet girl the young girl charmed by his promise of love reciprocated. However, the moor was hiding a terrible truth. He already had a wife and children back home. So, when the girl discovered it, she decided to keep his beloved face with her forever. Without hesitation, she cut off his head and create a vase in which she planted a basil shoot. This aromatic plant has always had an aura of holiness as it represents the rulers’ plant. In this sense, that terrible act was justified by her absolute love to continue to take care of her beloved young moor. Every day in fact, the tears of the young heart-broken girl watered the plant of basil that kept thriving and flourishing. And all the neighbours, inebriated by that sentof the beautiful plant, started to commission clay vases shaped as a moor head.
