RAFFAELLESCO Collection: Among the most popular and enduring Italian majolica patterns, the classic €œRaffaellesco€� traces its origin to 16th century, and the graceful arabesques of Raphael's famous frescoes.

Raffaellesco is a benevolent deity who bestows good luck and fair winds to seagoing merchants, thus the puffs of wind steaming from the dragon's mouth.
