About the Item

This stunning antique ceramic house number, crafted in Italy around 1880, is a true gem of Mediterranean design. Its bold cobalt blue color and delicate typography exude timeless elegance and make it a captivating decorative piece. Rich in character, the house number still retains traces of its original plaster from its previous life on an Italian facade, adding an authentic touch to its historical charm. If you wish to hang it, the plaster can easily be removed, or you can leave it as is to preserve its unique story. This versatile piece is not limited to its original purpose as a house number. It can be beautifully displayed on a bookshelf, nestled in a garden setting, or incorporated into a creative wall collage. Whether indoors or outdoors, it brings an effortless Mediterranean flair to any space. Perfect for collectors of antique ceramics or anyone seeking a distinctive decorative item, this house number is a timeless addition that blends history with artistic appeal.
