Review of RAFFAELLO Raffaello Oil & Vinegar cruet [Prod. OV102-RAF]

If you love Italian pottery, this is a beautiful set to have on your table.I love mine, it reminds me of my beloved Italy every time that I use it.The product it handmade and beautifully painted and glazed.The design is classic and found on many products for sale in Deruta.

I don't know if the products of Deruta are made of any special clay, but they are remarkably tough.I have many pieces of Deruta pottery and none of them have chipped or cracked.Since I can not say the same thing about other items in my home, I assume that it must be the materials.

I highly recommend this item to anyone that loves Italy or Italian culture.

Product Description
RAFFAELLO Collection: Among the most popular and enduring Italian majolica patterns, the classic "Raffaellesco" traces its origin to 16th century, and the graceful arabesques of Raphael's famous frescoes.The stylized dragon of the central motif was reputedly painted first by Raphael, a master painter and architect of the Italian High Renaissance.Raffaellesco is a benevolent deity who bestows good luck and fair winds to seagoing merchants, thus the puffs of wind steaming from thedragons mouth.
