Set of 2 ceramic Sardines - Purple

Set of 2 ceramic sardines, one all purple and the other striped purple and white.

 

These sardines find their place in the whole house and immediately remind you of Portugal. They can be placed, together, on a piece of furniture thanks to their flat belly but also be fixed to the wall thanks to their ventral hole. They are also very much used at the table, as a decorative object or as a cutlery rest.

 

These pieces come from a traditional ceramic workshop located near Caldas da Rainha, in central Portugal, the ancestral cradle of Portuguese ceramics. All the pieces are entirely hand-made and painted by hand with methods and attention to detail that are rarely seen anymore.
