The master potters of Caltagirone were very skilled in creating elaborate shapes and designs, using different decoration techniques. Caltagirone majolica tiles were highly appreciated for their beauty and durability, and were an important decorative element for all Sicilian houses, in fact they were used to decorate party halls, architraves and even the external facades of the buildings of the time.
