Three delightful and colorful round ceramic wall plates; they were created completely by hand between 1965 and 1968 by a small artisan workshop in Deruta (Perugia, Italy) respecting ancient traditions and raw materials; clay, enamel, colors, water, fire and the hands of the artist: these are the simple elements that lead to the creation of a ceramic article; on the back they have two holes so they can be hung on the wall; they represent characters in Renaissance clothing, each in a different pose: the first is a swordsman who wields a special weapon of the time the "side sword" with S-shaped guard and a dagger with guard very elaborate, useful to trap the blade of the opponent; the "spada da lato" (side sword) is that elegant and handy sword that, from the second half of the fifteenth century and throughout the sixteenth century, is worn on the belt by nobles or rich, a weapon designed for self-defense or to be used in a duel; In fact the second plate represents just a duel in which the two contenders always use "swords side", the one on the left also has a small shield and the one on the right wields an effective and perfidiously fast double-edged dagger; In the third plate is painted a "naccarino" who plays a cylindrical drum (similar to those spread by the Lanzichenecchi from the fifteenth-sixteenth century) held on the side and beaten with two sticks, the "naccarini" were players of small instruments whose presence was required every time you had to give particular solemnity to a public event. We don't know why the people of Deruta began to work the terracotta and to produce vases and manufactured articles in ceramics but we know with all certainty that already in the Middle Ages the city was known for the production of ceramics of high quality, the first written sources make to date the ceramics of Deruta (Perugia) to 1282. In the Renaissance, they were active to Deruta more than fifty furnaces with which they collaborated artists like the Perugino, the Pinturicchio, and Luca Signorelli. The mastery of the artisans and artists of Deruta ceramics has never declined over time. In the first years of the 1900s, a consortium was created that grouped together most of the artisan stores, and the same consortium guaranteed the quality of the objects produced; a trademark Ceramiche Deruta was also created, but very often each store marked its objects with fancy initials or with the signature of the artist, in fact, even our plates show a very elaborate hand-painted letter "D" that could be the initial of Deruta. Our dishes with painting the creativity of the craftsman has reached its maximum expression by creating three objects extremely engaging. The plates are in excellent condition, only the first one, the one with the single swordsman, has some chipping on the bottom edge (see photo) but is not visible from the front. Measures diameter cm.32, height cm.6. For all our shipments we use special packaging materials (wooden crates, styrofoam, etCentury) for maximum protection and safety of the objects. less
