Raffaellesco Collection of Italian Ceramics
Named for the Renaissance painter Raffael, Raffaellesco is one of the most popular and enduring Italian ceramic designs. The central motif of the Raffaellesco pattern is a stylized dragon which was thought to bring good luck and fair wind to seagoing merchants. You will notice the puffs of wind exhaling from Raffaellesco’s mouth. Our Raffaellesco Italian ceramic collection is hand painted in a small family studio in Deruta, Umbria. This pattern complements many decorating styles from traditional to contemporary. Visit PoggiBonsiGifts.com for our complete selection of Italian Ceramics.
