The Moor's Head Turban Medusa h 25 cm — Antiqued Gold Mother-of-Pearl and Lusters is the most precious version of Ceramiche Sofia's Turban Medusa series: the Medusa — a symbol of protection in Sicilian tradition — emerges from the draped turban with an antiqued mother-of-pearl finish, embellished with pure gold and iridescent ceramic lusters. The result is a piece of extraordinary refinement where every element — form, iconography, finish — reaches its highest expressive level.

The Turban Medusa Antiqued Gold Mother-of-Pearl and Lusters is the culmination of Ceramiche Sofia's production in the h25 format: the protective Medusa, the draped turban, the golden mother-of-pearl — three elements that merge into an object of extraordinary artisanal complexity.

All works are kiln-signed, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, and hand-modeled and decorated. Production times may vary depending on availability, as each product is created to order to ensure the utmost attention to detail and artisanal uniqueness.
