These 13 blue butterflies come from the rainforests at the base of the Andes in Peru. What they all have in common is this mixture of black velvet and shades of blue on their wings. They are members of the Nymphalidae family. Among them, the Naeocles Jucunda live in the canopy of these forests, others like the Panacea Prola like to lounge on the banks of rivers, even in light rain. This Peruvian cocktail is presented under a round globe with a brass base.

A large and beautiful cracked canvas straight out of the corridors of time. A reinterpretation of the work of Josep Tapiró i Baró.

Every accident and lack, every crack or patina effect is never the result of chance... everything is brought together here so that this reinterpretation becomes more real than life.

Josep Tapiró i Baró is a Spanish painter born in Reus, February 7, 1836 and died in Tangier on October 4, 1913. He is known for his watercolors representing portraits of the inhabitants of Tangier. He studied drawing and painting with his childhood friend Mariano Fortuny in Barcelona under the direction of Domingo Soberano.

The two friends then completed their training at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando in Madrid. Thanks to many trips across Europe between 1863 and 1870, he consolidated his style, strongly influenced by his friend. They travel together to Morocco for the first time in 1871, and following this decisive event in the life of the two artists, Tapiró decides to settle in Tangier, in 1876, where he will remain, for almost forty years, until upon his death in 1913.

Very beautiful 19th century sculpture representing a Putto (naked child in artistic representations). It is in particular a term of Italian architectural ornamentation which designates the statue of a chubby and mocking infant. It is almost always a boy.

Statue of an angel, probably attributed to the French sculptor Vissot.

A figure inspired by Italian Art and particularly appreciated by artists of the time, our loving and charming cherub seems hesitant here: Which one will I choose?

Faithfully reproduced the patina gives the appearance and the marks of time.

Approach your ear so that it whispers many beautiful stories to you!

Handcrafted in ceramic, double firing. Entirely made and painted by hand in Caltagirone (Italy).

The Moors were members of the Muslim people of North Africa, of mixed Arab and Berber origin. In the 8th century they were converted to Islam and established power in North Africa, Sicily and Spain, where they established a civilization (756-1492).

THE LEGEND :

During the Arab domination in Sicily, in the city of Palermo there was an Arab suburb called "La Kalsa".

In this small suburb lived a beautiful young woman who spent her time tending to the flowers on her balcony.

One day a young Moor was walking under the lady's balcony. He noticed the beauty of the young lady and he fell in love with her.

He did not wait a minute to declare his love and the beautiful young girl, impressed by the audacity of the lover, quickly experienced the same love.

Unfortunately, the young Moor was already married and had several children ... as soon as the young woman found out that he could leave to find his family, one day she waited for night and killed him while he slept soundly. She cut off his head and used it as a vase for her plants so she could have him forever by her side.

As the beauty of this vase was remarkable, the whole neighborhood wanted to own a similar one.

From this moment, the creation of vases in the shape of the heads of Moors began...
