The sophisticated black onyx ornament is embellished with hand-painted platinum threading that traces the lines of the Impero shape and illuminates the entire element. The decoration is made by airbrush and is finished with the process of "dilaccatura", a sophisticated negative decoration technique that allows the color to be safeguarded and the precious threading to be highlighted. The Contessa collection, in a complete assortment of porcelain tableware, tea, coffee and home accessories, is available in several color variants, including with pure gold threading, to lend character and authenticity to any setting.
