Signoria Firenze Shields and Crests: One of the most monumental and easily recognizable palaces in all Italy, Palazzo Vecchio in Florence and its setting in Piazza della Signoria is a glorious sight. Looking at the front of Palazzo Vecchio just under the crenellated parapet is a series of coats of arms. If you take a closer look, you'll see that what seems like a long line of crests is really a series of 9 shields which repeat themselves in the same order. The shields were painted in their niches in about 1340, and each has a specific meaning in the history of the Florentine Republic. Our collection, translated as the Lordship of Florence, is inspired by the these and other historical shields. Shape and Design: Florentine in every way, our Signoria Firenze Collection reflects life in Florence from the painted shields to the beautiful shape of the edges of the pieces in two main colors; amber and green. Dinnerware Set: Our Signoria Firenze Italian Collection mixes beautifully with Modigliani Taormina Dinnerware and Serveware, Modigliani Michelangelo Honey Flatware, Modigliani Tivoli Amber and Green Glassware, and Modigliani Tovagliette Italian Placemats and Napkins in Rust and Gold making a beautiful tabletop presentation. Home Décor: While your Signoria Firenze Italian ceramics are not being used at the table, showcase them on a coffee table, wall or shelf as a beautiful piece of art. Authenticity: Each piece from our handmade Italian collections comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. Please note, the item you receive will not be the exact item pictured, but it will be close. Each piece is an original work of art, uniquely hand painted in Italy.
