MARIE OLSSON NYLANDER for HKliving | Teste di moro Siciliane

“I love them, the first thing we bought for our palazzo! I bought a pair at a vintage market years ago. Apart from the fact that they are hand made, there is also a mysterious story behind them. In Palermo, a young woman decided to take revenge on her lover who was about to leave her. While he was sleeping she beheaded him, so that her lover would stay with her forever. She planted some basil which bloomed so beautifully that the whole neighborhood in Palermo copied the idea and made clay pots of the shape of a Moor head.”  -Marie Olsson Nylander
