If you want an unique, authentic Italian Christmas decoration to grace your home this festive season, you've just found it.



Deruta is one of the oldest ceramic companies in Italy - they've been in business for something like eight hundred years.



'Arabesco', or the 'Whimsical Bird', is one of their oldest designs, dating back to the 17th Century. It shows the little song bird surrounded by flowers and is often seen on genuine Tuscan goods.



The Deruta baubles are all hand made, glazed and although they are by no means indesctructible, they are strong enough to be dishwasher-proof.
