Raffaellesco Lite: the ever popular simplified Raphaelesque designs for a less challenging look ...
Among the most popular and enduring Italian majolica, the classic 'Raphaelesque' traces its origin to the 16th century, and the graceful arabesques of Raphael's famous frescoes.
The stylized dragon of the central motif would have been painted first by Raphael, an Italian High Renaissance master painter and architect.
Raphaelesque is a benevolent deity who gives good luck and good wind to maritime merchants, hence the puffs of wind steaming from the dragon's mouth.Raffaellesco Lite tableware is the ultimate option for buyers willing to invest in something more formal and versatile. Its refined appearance ensures that the set is ideal for formal dining occasions or for everyday use to present any meal with elegance.The Raffaellesco design tableware is usually very richly decorated; actually it is true of the popular thought that the more the objects are decorated the more they are equally beautiful and precious, however, with the current minimal trend, our mission is to create a much simpler look at a reduced price while maintaining the original Feeling of Deruta.
