Brocca trilobata (trefoil-mouthed jug): a traditional medieval form, with a mouth pinched into three lobes for pouring.

Jug with a trefoil opening and a flared bell-shaped foot.
This mezza maiolica jug is entirely handmade in our workshop in Pitigliano, Tuscany. The decoration, inspired by medieval iconography, is executed in the traditional colours of copper green and manganese, characteristic of Maiolica Arcaica.
The forms and decorations draw on the medieval tradition, reinterpreted through careful craftsmanship that respects historical techniques. Each piece is created through a handmade process, resulting in a unique object with subtle variations in shape and colour that bear witness to its authenticity.
Designed both for everyday use and as a decorative object, this piece brings together functionality, historical character and timeless beauty.
