Coimbra is legendary for the most unique and beautiful patterns of earthenware decoration known as Faience.
The faience of Antiga, authentic reproductions of designs from the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, are drawn and painted entirely by hand by artists who have made their creation of these unique pieces, their passion and life time work.
Vintage Iberia has carefully selected pieces from this most ancient of workshops which we feel will coordinate with many decorating styles, but most importantly are the finest representations of the revered art of Faience, a Portuguese tradition which continues for your enjoyment. |
