Love to combine shipping. Thanks.History: The Nino Parrucca line of pottery was started in the mid-20th century (1965). Each piece in the Parrucca Collection is an original design by Nino Parrucca from Palermo, Sicily. Son of art from an early childhood, he was initiated into the world of craft in the studio of his parents, makers of the famous Sicilian carts. Completely handmade and hand painted in the family workshop in Palermo, the pottery exemplifies the union of Italian design and the use of vivid colors of sunny Sicily. Primitive figures reflect the history and life of Sicily but are universal in their appeal to those of other cultures and climes. He was influenced by the Sicilian culture around him, portraying scenes of the marketplace, wine making, and fishing. The company is at the forefront of the world of Sicilian and international ceramic art thanks to its unique and original style, which derives from the master’s Picasso, Matisse, Leger and Klee, as well as everyday situations taken from folklore and Sicilian traditions.My shipping price includes my actual postage cost as well as packing/handling cost (bubble wrap, boxes, tape, envelopes, etc.) with transportation to post office and my time. It entails more than the postage stamp amount when it arrives to you. Also note that I recycle materials as much as possible - saving the environment. All that being said I do try hard to be reasonable. Please leave feedback when the item is received, and I will do the same for you.
