Della Robbia Christmas Tree dh549107

Della Robbia refers to an artistic style that was characteristic of art produced by the fifteenth century Italian sculptor Luca della Robbia and his family. 

As a decorative element in borders, their aertwork incorporated various fruits, usually oranges, apples, pear,s and grapes.

This fruit motif eventually found its way into live arrangements, primarily garlands and wreaths. Such creations simply became "della Robbia."

Here is our "della Robbia" Christmas tree. In keeping with the Renaissance colors and scheme.
