Pine cones are coming
I am a precious object, a symbol of Sicily and a world-renowned example of craftsmanship. Gifting a Pine Cone represents a bond and a tribute to our land, an element that unites tradition with the modern era, a return to our origins.
Even today, Pine Cones are still made entirely by hand, following tradition, by getting hands dirty with clay and paint. Our manufacturing process has remained unchanged over time. Each Pine Cone is meticulously detailed and subjected to quality controls. It comes with a certificate of authenticity (authentic Caltagirone ceramic) and an elegant card explaining the meaning of the pine cone to your guests.
