Colors, shapes and style are the goal to make our SOFIA brand personal.   6) Second firing: The most important where the object acquires brightness and luminosity, thus enhancing shapes and colors.    Through special techniques the chiaroscuro is highlighted on the crystallized effect of the majolica inspired by the great master CARAVAGGIO.   A third phase of black color is then used, thus making our ceramics even more characteristic with a particular reference to the classic style of Caltagirone majolica; always associated with our ideas we give notes and colors that can link the classic with the modern. For that our laboratory is in Caltagirone and all our creations are stamped with our brand on the base and signed in the fire.  To certify that every single object has gone through the six stages of processing that make it authentic and unalterable over time and which has passed rigorous quality controls.

Meanwhile, the basil grew luxuriantly and aroused the envy of all the inhabitants of the neighborhood. Not to be outdone, they had terracotta Vases built in the shape of Moor's head . Caltagirone: city of ceramics The name Caltagirone derives from the Arabic term Qal?at al Ghiran, which means ?Rock of the Vases ?. The manufacturing of ceramics in the Caltagirone area dates back to the Neolithic.  The imprint of the various peoples who have colonized Sicily over the centuries is also perceived in the ceramic processing, despite this, the potters in their art have always brought out the Sicilian character.The art of working Sicilian ceramics has been handed down from generation to generation. The peculiarities of the product depend on the skills of the master potter, his creativity and attention to detail, which is a guarantee of the piece's exclusivity.   Terms of saleEach object is accompanied by a certificate of guarantee and is punched and signed on the underside, which attests to the originality and origin. Our products are made entirely by hand for this some small imperfections are not to be considered defects, but proof of the uniqueness of the piece.The object you will receive may differ slightly from the photo, another proof of the handwork of each work.The item will be made to order. For this reason we do not accept returns for afterthought.Times maximum of production: 15 working daysIf you need delivery before the deadlineyou can contact us to know the availability or the exact timing.  For shipments to Canada, the United States and Russia, the travel time is 7 to 15 business days.If you need faster delivery, please contact us we will give you faster service quotation.Free return within 14 days of delivery if the item is different from the description, broken or defective,Notify promptly, maximum within 4 days in case of damage during transport.IMPORTANT: The goods travel insured ed is carefully and carefully packed and checked before shipping. Sign the courier receipt Always with reserve.Items that show damage during transport will be replaced only in the case of receipt with reserve and communication within 4 days from the delivery date.Delivery costs do not apply to Northern Ireland, Islands and Overseas Territories and Europe than in America.Before paying, contact us for a quote.
