The coaster sits under a wine or champagne bottle to catch drips and protect the table; the matching stopper reseals an open bottle and keeps the pair together on a bar cart or counter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gold is applied and fired by hand so it glows against the painted ceramic — a small, giftable piece of Italian craft that dresses up an everyday bottle. Each is hand-painted by a single artisan, so no two are ever exactly alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt makes an easy gift for a wedding, a host, or a wine lover, and pairs naturally with other Deruta and gold-accented pieces across an Italian table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe small imperfections such as the difference in color, shape, diameter or small bubbles that form inside, do not constitute a defect but testify that it is actually an artisanal product.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5\" × 2.5\"\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-painted Deruta ceramic with real 24-karat gold\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade in:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deruta, Umbria, Italy\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWorkshop:\u003c\/strong\u003e CF Deruta (Ceramiche Favaroni Carlo)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ocra with 24-karat gold detailing\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24-karat gold detailing on hand-painted ceramic\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeritage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deruta majolica tradition\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-wash only — wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth.

Hand-painted Italian ceramics are heirloom-quality, one-of-a-kind (no two pieces are ever exactly alike because each is hand-painted by a single artisan), and they carry their origin clearly: this piece is made in Deruta, Italy. Couples actually use and display Biordi pieces rather than store them. We ship nationwide, gift-wrap on request, and have been the San Francisco source for authentic Italian ceramics since 1946.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this a good housewarming or hostess gift?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. Gifts are the largest part of what Biordi sells — every piece is a one-of-a-kind, authentic Italian treasure made by a named artisan in Italy, not a mass-produced import. Arrives ready to use rather than store. Add Florentine gift wrap at checkout if you’d like it sent finished.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy buy Italian gifts from Biordi rather than other retailers?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBiordi Art Imports has been San Francisco’s source for authentic Italian ceramics and gifts since 1946. Voted \u003cstrong\u003eBest Overall Retailer\u003c\/strong\u003e in the San Francisco Bay Guardian Best of the Bay readers’ poll for \u003cstrong\u003efive consecutive years\u003c\/strong\u003e. Designated a \u003cstrong\u003eSan Francisco Legacy Business\u003c\/strong\u003e (#LBR-2020-21-029), and the city declared \u003cstrong\u003eMay 1 “Biordi Art Imports Day”\u003c\/strong\u003e in 2021. Every piece comes from a named Italian artisan, family workshop, or heritage house we work with directly — FIMA, CF Deruta, Pia Formato, Eugenio Ricciarelli, Susanna DeSimone (from the famous Palermo ceramic family — her father painted with Picasso), Geribi, Bucci Ceramiche, Ortigia Sicilia, Italesse, and Salviati. So each piece is genuinely one-of-a-kind. Not a stock-photo listing, not a mass-produced import, not a reproduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this be customized or personalized?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCustomization and personalization are available on select pieces. Eugenio Ricciarelli, FIMA, Pia Formato, Geribi, and CF Deruta accept special orders — a name, date, or occasion painted on the piece, or a different size or shape in the workshop’s existing pattern. Lead time is typically 3–6 months because each piece is hand-painted to order in Italy.

Artisans for decades, this family owned business creates unique hand-painted Italian ceramics. Since the 1940s, Mr. Salvatore Favaroni has painted in various Deruta factories, creating inspired works following local traditions. In the 1970’s, Mr. Favaroni opened his own laboratory called “Ceramiche Favaroni Deruta” with decorations of flowers, landscape \u0026amp; Castelli characterizing the production. Salvatore’s son Carlo now runs the family business, called “CF DERUTA.” Today the production of classic decorations brings traditional designs back to the contemporary in colors and shapes. CF Deruta produces exceptional holiday décor for Biordi Art Imports.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CF Deruta","offers":[{"title":"5\" x 1.5\"","offer_id":45664523190325,"sku":"6665","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1001\/9802\/files\/ChatGPTImageJun24_2026_08_08_22PM.png?v=1782356915","url":"https:\/\/biordi.com\/products\/wine-coaster-bottle-stopper-red-copy","provider":"Biordi Art Imports","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
