Decorated Sicilian horseshoe
"U ferru ri cavaddu"
This is a iron decorated Sicilian horseshoe that follows the traditional style used in the popular Sicilian carts.
It is 100% handmade and hand-painted with love in Sicily by a talented native artisan.
In the Sicilian tradition, horseshoes have represented symbols of luck since ancient times.
This authentic artwork will fill your home with good vibes, joyful colors and the Sicilian passion for life!
We are inspired by the same adorning patterns that are used to decorate the popular Sicilian carts.
Carts are known for being covered with brightly painted scenes from Sicilian history, paladins, and folklore as well as intricate geometrical designs.
Although you may find Sicilian horseshoes to buy online, note that they could be mass produced and printed by industrial machines.
Our decorated Sicilian horseshoes are hand crafted and hand-painted by the best native artists. They follow the traditional style used in the province of Catania, one of the most refined styles in Sicily.
Our artisans look forward to making a unique handmade Sicilian horseshoe with love just for you. It serves as a beautiful ornament to have in hour home!
