Coimbra I Decorative Ceramic Sardines

A magnificent decorative ceramic sardine from Coimbra in traditional, vibrant colors traditionally representing scenes of nature, plants, and exotic birds.

This small object is the result of long and meticulous work, entirely manual. It is signed and documented by the artist. Each artisan illustrator unleashes their creativity, making each piece a unique work of art.
