I Vasi Palagonia Collection ~ Made in Sicily by Patrizia Italiano
The I Vasi Palagonia collection is a whimsical series of hand sculpted terracotta head vases by Sicilian ceramicist Patrizia Italiano. Each piece is unique, carrying its own playful character, crowned with curls or prickly pear leaves, bringing a touch of humour , folklore and Mediterranean soul into gardens, courtyards or interiors. Whether displayed singly or as a collective family, as a plater or a sculpture they create an atmosphere that is rustic & joyous, leaning on Sicilian folklore yet refreshingly contemporary.
