TRIBUTE TO SICILY
Our iconic collection takes inspiration from the famous paintings made on carts typical of the Sicilian peasant tradition. The new iconic packaging is available with all the oils we produce.
Sicilian carts have been used for centuries as a means of transport for goods and people. In the past, they were often painted with very colorful and decorative images depicting animals, flowers and landscapes.
These images were depicted to recall nature and country life as well as to evoke feelings of cheerfulness and joy.
Today, Sicilian carts have become a truly iconic symbol of the island’s culture and are often used as a display for parties and exhibitions. Even today thanks to this rediscovery, they continue to be painted with historical images and representations such as that of St. George on horseback piercing the dragon.
