DESCRIPTION A premium hand-painted Italian olive oil spray dispenser in the Blue Peacock pattern from the Eugenio Collection, produced by the Tommassini workshop in the hills of Deruta, Italy. A working precision tool for the kitchen — a hand-painted ceramic body combined with a fine-mist stainless steel sprayer for even, drizzle-free dosing of olive oil. Designed for cooks who want precision and control: ideal for drizzling, roasting, grilling, baking, finishing dishes, or seasoning pans. The fine-mist sprayer reduces oil use without sacrificing coverage, which makes it a quietly health-conscious tool in addition to a beautiful one. Also works with soy sauce, vinegar, infused water, or even fragrance — anything you want to dispense in a controlled mist rather than a pour. The Blue Peacock pattern is part of the Eugenio Collection — the design language of master Deruta artisan Eugenio Ricciarelli, known for his hues of blue and geometric compositions. Pairs naturally with the Peacock Blue pepper grinder and the rest of the Eugenio Collection. The small imperfections such as the difference in color, shape, diameter or small bubbles that form inside, do not constitute a defect but testify that it is actually an artisanal product.

Yes — Eugenio Ricciarelli accepts special orders for dinnerware in any of his patterns, dish size, mug, goblet, or cup-and-saucer set, and pieces can be personalized with a name or occasion.

The ceramic body is hand-painted by a single artisan at the Tommassini workshop in Deruta, so no two are exactly alike. The small differences in color, shape, line, or diameter that you'll see piece-to-piece are signs of authentic hand-painting, not defects. How do I care for this dispenser? Hand wash recommended. Combined ceramic-and-steel pieces shouldn't go in the dishwasher — the heat and detergents can damage the join between the ceramic body and the steel mechanism over time. Is this a good Italian wedding gift? Yes — a premium hand-painted oil dispenser is a distinctive registry choice because it's a useful tool with a clear designer pedigree (Blue Peacock from Eugenio Ricciarelli).
