Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Manufactured and decorated by hand in Sicily for over 200 years, this Italian pottery from Caleca maintains a high level of durability, beauty, and tradition. Individually constructed and painted by hand, each piece receives a stamp ensuring its authenticity. With or without the official seal, the brightly saturated colors and whimsically fresh patterns are instantly recognizable as Caleca designs.

An 11-inch dinner plate, 8-1/2-inch shallow bowl, 8-1/4 inch salad plate, 6-ounce tea cup, and 6-inch saucer make up the Girasole 5-piece place setting with service for one from Caleca. In Italian, Girasole translates as sunflower, and this collection captures the essence of the sun loving flower. With brilliant yellow and tangerine hues, a band of apple green adorned with handpainted leaves, and a ring of sky blue, the design illustrates the spirit of this beautiful bloom. Crafted from lead-free, non-toxic clay, all Caleca dinnerware is chip-resistant and can safely be placed in the dishwasher and microwave. --Lea Werbel
