The Ricceri family has been working with terracotta since the 18th century. The Antica Manifattura Ricceri d'Impruneta made hand-made bricks, terracotta tiles, and roof tiles, as well as more decorative objects.

This Italian terracotta pedestal from the 1800s is a splendid representation of the neoclassical era's reverence for ancient art and mythology. It serves as a testament to the remarkable craftsmanship of the period, and its harmonious blend of garlands, harpies, and portraits makes it a captivating and timeless piece of art, perfect for adorning any interior or outdoor space with a touch of classical elegance and historical significance.
