Muraglia - Extra virgin olive oil - 2 - 500ml

Set consisting of 2 500 ml ceramic crocks of extra virgin olive oil from the POP ART line, ARAGOSTA and FICO D'INDIA, produced by FRANTOIO MURAGLIA, PUGLIA - ITALY.

Frantoio Muraglia was born in Andria, the capital of Apulian olive oil, five generations ago, but the patriarch of the olive tree family is said to number 450. It is a majestic Coratina olive tree, an autochthonous cultivar armed with polyphenols like few among the 538 Italian varieties classified. Our story as olive oil makers begins with this green giant that dominates our countryside on the Murgia plateau, a stretch of about 40 hectares of olive trees. We continue to harvest olives by hand and to cold-press in the ancient stone mill.

The crocks are from the POP ART series and are named: ARAGOSTA and FICO D'INDIA, just as the images depicted, from left to right on each one of them.

The crocks of the POP ART collection, entirely handmade by Apulian artisans, are true design objects that lead straight to the colors of the land and sea of Puglia. Colorful marine pop elements: vivid tones and matte finishes actually personalize octopuses, squid and fish that dart across the white ceramic, highlighting its purity and the artisanal perfection; pastel streaks, on the other hand, become bright iridescences of the rainbow – Frantoio Muraglia's distinctive iconography – that dive into the sea to personalize very colorful octopuses and return to shore, tinting the prickly pears with warmth.
