More informations?

This piece comes from a small workshop located in the Centro-Oeste region of Portugal, in the province of Estremadura. Its design is characteristic of what is known as Caldas da Rainha pottery, whose most famous artist is Bordallo Pinheiro.

The moulds used in this workshop have been passed down from generation to generation, and the current owner still uses those of his grandfather. Each piece is carefully crafted entirely by hand, and production is extremely limited.
