Faraglioni

The Tavassi Capri Faraglioni line is inspired by the famous wedges of rock, the island’s symbol par excellence. Majestic and indomitable in the face of the passing of time, they are tinged with silver, illuminated by the sun, while welcoming tourists.

The ‘Faraglioni di Mezzo’ and ‘di Fuori’ are the natural habitat of the blue lizard which is not a legend but really exists. This reptile is one of a kind due to its cobalt blue color and only lives on the Faraglioni. He can be considered the most extraordinary inhabitant of the island.
And yet, thanks to the mastery of the ceramist Gennaro Tavassi, the blue lizard seems to have abandoned the Faraglioni of Capri for a moment to become the muse of his artistic Capri ceramics.

Ceramic plates with the blue lizard: a sophisticated design that becomes a trend

The Faraglioni line is sculptural and the color which dominates each creation is white and blue. At the same time the design that defines the objects follows modern cuts and innovative trends: the shapes which outline the objects are refined, being ideal for those who want to embellish both the table, and their home with a style that moves away from traditional patterns without being excessive.

The embossed blue lizard seems to sit elegantly on plates, glasses and cups. There are other objects in the shape of a Faraglione on which the blue lizard climbs, tea cups with shell-like or tentacle handles, ceramic milk jugs with saucer and sugar bowls with unusual geometry.

Within the Tavassi Capri Faraglioni line the imagination runs free. They are not just ceramic plates representing a blue lizard. The master ceramist Gennaro Tavassi has imagined variants who challenge the laws of nature. And so he has enjoyed thinking about ceramic frogs and snails sitting on the Faraglioni. The single reproduction of the blue lizard completes the Faraglioni line as a fine souvenir object.

With the Faraglioni collection you enhance your table with a modern cut aimed at amazing your guests. At the same time you tell a story that is almost a legend.

Shapes and dimensions

The ceramic plates are available in different shapes and sizes: oval, round, priest’s hat, dishes and bowls. They can be either combined or sold separately.
