The wedding in Montelupo Fiorentino in the tradition of amatory ceramics
Unique artifacts made just for you by local artisans, with personalized shapes and symbols, for an unforgettable keepsake.
Amatory ceramics or “gamelii” are a very ancient and widespread genre of ceramic artifacts that can be found in the traditional productions of all ceramic cities.
These objects, highly appreciated by both popular classes and families of higher social status, were dedicated and offered as wedding or engagement gifts to future spouses.
The symbolic references are explicit: the background setting is often an ideal enclosure, like a hortus conclusus that alludes to the peace of married life, while the animals have emblematic value, each representing a different virtue or positive wish for the soon-to-be spouses (the rabbit: pregnancies; the dog: fidelity; the deer: noble bearing; the bird: care of the nest and offspring).
The pierced hearts represents heartache, while the chains depict the tenacity of the bond shared by two lovers. Amatory ceramics are usually produced in the shape of amphorae, plates, jewelry boxes with a lid or cups.
If you want to gift a precious object that represents love and tradition, the fruit of artisan expertise and ancient savoir-faire, but also a symbol of union and good fortune for the future, choose one of the customizable products that our ceramists offer.
