Description from the seller

“Pulcinella in the Moka Pot” Good Luck Sculpture – Silver-Plated – Made in Italy

An unusual and fascinating decorative collectible sculpture that brings together the iconic industrial design of the Italian moka pot and the figure of Pulcinella, the most famous mask in the theatrical tradition and culture of Naples.

The piece is made of metal with a refined, glossy, mirror-like silver-plated finish. As confirmed by the original label, still perfectly preserved on the protective felt base, the item is entirely Made in Italy.

Pulcinella rises waist-high from the upper chamber of the coffee maker, smiling as he holds a glossy white espresso cup in his hands. He wears the traditional black mask and the classic pointed hat (“coppolone”).

The base faithfully reproduces an octagonal moka pot and includes a faux safety valve in gold-finished brass. The faceted lid is fixed in an upright, open position behind the character, framing him.

The lid knob and shaped handle are made of black resin/plastic with a rough faceted effect.

A perfect decorative piece for coffee lovers, collectors of Neapolitan folklore, or as an original good-luck charm to display.

Professional reinforced packaging is guaranteed to ensure the item remains intact during shipping.
