Some objects are made to be discovered, and the bummulo is one of them. A quintessentially Mediterranean utensil, it is a carafe for water or wine in a form all its own, one that belongs to Sicily. It brings a cheerful, joyful atmosphere to the table and surprises everyone when the drinks are poured. Every use has a little wonder in it, which is exactly why it is remembered.

This one wears the Sicilian Cart decoration, known to its makers as the Malandrino, the cheeky one. It is an interpretation of the motifs found on the carts of western Sicily, reimagined with a contemporary twist. Numerous geometric designs in bright, vibrant colours come together in a lively texture of patterns, with yellows, reds, blues and oranges leading the way. It is the painted carretto, the island’s beloved work of art on wheels, brought to your table.

Crafted entirely by hand and finished in a luminous, high-fire glossy glaze, it is ideal for water and excellent for wine. Choose the 0.5 L for a table for two, or the 1.0 L to share with the whole company. As every piece is made by hand, each one is unique and may differ slightly from the one shown.

In your home

Let it take its place at the centre of the table, filled with chilled water or a favourite red, and watch it become the story your guests remember. When it is not in use, it is a joyful, colourful accent on a sideboard or a shelf, and it suits every interior, from calm minimalism to richly layered rooms.

A gift as unique as its recipient

For anyone who loves art, design, good food and luxury, this bummulo is a gift of rare character. It is food safe and made to be used, which makes it perfect for hosts, wine lovers and all who adore Italy and Sicily, whether for a housewarming, a wedding or a special celebration. Because each piece is made by hand, the one you give will be truly theirs alone.
