DESCRIPTION
Pia Formato is a young Deruta artist who devised what is already considered a classic Deruta design: Ricamo Rosso with its brilliant red and rich gold tones.
The small imperfections such as the difference in color, shape, diameter or small bubbles that form inside, do not constitute a defect but testify that it is actually an artisanal product.
