The Testa di Moro (Sicilian Moor's Head) h 25 cm with Sicilian Lemons in Mother of Pearl unites two icons of Sicily in one extraordinary piece: the shiny yellow lemons, hand-modelled and applied to the headdress, blend with the antique mother of pearl finish that covers the whole sculpture, creating a beautiful contrast between the bright yellow of the fruit and the iridescent reflections of the surface. A rare and sought-after piece, among the most precious in the h 25 size.
