Set of 4 vintage coasters is hand painted with Sun Face decor; each face is unique, with its own expression. Minimal color palette enhances the subtle variations between the pieces. We have 2 sets of coasters at the time of the listing; the decision was made to list them separately (set 1 and set 2) due to uniqueness of the facial art.

Piero Fornasetti Complete Set of Eight Ceramic Coasters, Il Mondo Alla Rovecia Pattern, (“The topsy-turvy world”), After opera by Antonio Salieri, 1950-60s The set of whimsical pottery barware pottery coasters represent different scenes from an Opera, Il Mondo Alla Rovecia with the roles of each character reversed. There is the bottom section of the gold cardboard box. Dimensions: 4 1/8 inches diameter x 1 1/8 inches high (10.48cm diameter) With Antonio Salieri’s star on the wane, Il mondo alla rovescia (“The topsy-turvy world”) was coolly received by the Viennese in January 1795 and quickly fell into near-oblivion for over two centuries. It is an amusing comedy from an experienced master of opera buffa.

The status quo is challenged with the arrival of two shipwrecked aristocrats, a Count and a Marquise, and a European vessel intent on their rescue – although, in keeping with contemporary taste.
