Abanico Traditional Spanish Lebrillo in Blue

€ 300 EUR

The lebrillo, a revered and enduring ceramic basin that has graced Spanish homes for centuries, boasts a distinctive look characterized by its flat base and trapezoidal shape. Initially, these vessels served a range of practical household purposes, with larger lebrillos finding utility as washbasins and mixing bowls in the kitchen. However, transcending its functional origins, the lebrillo has metamorphosed into an emblem of Spanish culture, capturing the affections of many as a coveted decorative item. The Fajalauza ceramics hailing from Granada, celebrated for their intricate patterns and vibrant colors, draw inspiration from antique designs dating back to the 16th century. These hand-painted Spanish lebrillos hold significant worth among collectors and make exceptional gifts.

The handmade Abanico lebrillo features a granada or pomegranate on the base. The ripened fruit is split open so that we can see its seeds. The pomegranate is flanked by branches topped with blooming flowers and the walls of the basin boast abstract decorative motifs.

This lebrillo features a white glaze pained over in cobalt blue designs.

Lebrillos featuring cobalt blue paint were extremely rare up until the 19th century. Up until the 1850s, the blue pigment was the most expensive because of its technical production. Artisans had to source lapis stone which they then ground down to extract the mineral and remove impurities. The purer form of this blue, aptly called stone blue or “azul piedra” was reserved for more delicate, precious pieces. Green, being more economical, was the go-to color for large pieces like the lebrillo or utilitarian items like the mortar.
