The Testa di Moro with Turban h 25 cm, Blue and Orange is a variant of the classic h 25 with the headdress wrapped as a turban: a shape that recalls North African and Eastern influences in Sicilian ceramic culture, the result of centuries of cultural exchange between Sicily and the eastern Mediterranean. The blue and orange decoration, the most iconic colours of the Caltagirone tradition, enhances the shape of the turban with strong Mediterranean character.
