Terrano offers two 500 ml bottles of PDO Sicilian 100% Italian extra virgin olive oil from Sicilia, Italy.
Description from the seller
Lotto consisting of 2 ceramic ovoid vessels of 500 ml each, representing the famous Moro Heads, of extra virgin olive oil produced by Terrano, Sicily - Italy.
TESTE DI MORO
Bottle Moro Head 500ml
The project arises from the idea of creating a bottle that would represent the “Sicilianity” of an oil, to be presented to giftware stores, gourmet shops, and Sicilian specialty shops both in Italy and abroad.
The idea of reproducing one of the most famous “symbols” of Sicily is to provide a handicraft object coupled with one of the Sicilian oils, so as to leave the consumer with a memory of this land and an object to keep even after the content is finished.
The legend of the “Moro head” dates back to the 11th century, when the Moors invaded Sicily and became part of the population, so much so that they blended perfectly with the Sicilian population. The story of this vase will be included on the bottle label, also to provide the consumer with all the details of the origin of this vase that is found throughout Sicily.
The bottle is made of glass from a mold designed with a female face on one side and a male face on the other; it is produced in dark glass or white-enameled glass, optionally decorated in some details (the mouth, the eyes, the necklace, etc.), in order to create different versions of the bottle for the retailer. The bottle design has been deposited with the Chamber of Commerce of Catania to guarantee the originality of the container.
