A lovely little relish tray.
The “Raffaellesco” pattern was inspired by
Raphael’s 16th century frescoes in the Vatican
palace. It is said that the central motif of this
pattern, the dragon, symbolizes a benevolent deity who
brought good luck to sailors of the time. The sea
creature supposedly rescued sailors trapped in a dead
calm by blowing on the trapped ship’s sails. Today,
it is commonly believed that having a piece of
Raffaellesco in your home brings blessings and good
luck.
