DESCRIPTION This deep teal green leaf pattern, originating from Orvieto, circa the 12th century, displays the singing rooster. This rooster, introduced by Deruta ceramicists in the early 20th century, has become a familiar icon in Italian pottery. Every utensil is made with the highest quality stainless steel from EME, the leading luxury flatware company in Italy. It is combined with hand-painted ceramics from Deruta. 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. ARTISAN STORY Tommassini is a family owned workshop in the hills of Deruta. Father, wife and son work together creating the most beautifully painted highly functional Italian majolica utensils, pepper grinders and glassware.
