Product Finish

Have a Question about an Item's Color or Finish?
Due to the hand-crafted nature of our products, it is normal for dimensions, color, shading, surface decoration and finish to vary from item to item. No two pieces are exactly the same. Furthermore, product colors viewed on websites will vary from one computer monitor/smartphone/tablet to another because of the way different monitors and web browsers render colors. However, if you need additional pictures of an item to help with your purchase, please contact customer service. We pride ourselves in this service of providing additional photos of our products in addition to complimentary decorating advice.

Italian Pottery and Tuscan Style Décor

Hand-Painted Italian Pottery
Our Italian Pottery production is completely carried out within our artisans' workshops in Italy from the clay shaping of the bisque, to the decoration and kiln firing. Each piece is made entirely by hand in the Italian tradition and painted individually. No two pieces are exactly the same. Variations include shape, dimension, color depth, decoration, signatures and factory hallmark stamps, tiny flicks of paint, small crevices in the glaze and even an occasional marking from the artists loving hands. These variances are evidence of an original, one of a kind hand painted piece of Italian Pottery which does not deflect from the value but rather adds to its charm. However, if you need additional pictures of an item, please contact customer service. You can browse our entire collection of Italian Pottery by selecting the "Italian Ceramics" Category from the top menu or by clicking here.

Italian Pottery Care, Usage and Labeling
Our Italian ceramic tableware and serving pieces can go in the dishwasher but we recommend the fine china setting or delicate cycle, top rack. We do not recommend putting items in the microwave or oven. Our Italian ceramics have met FDA standards and are food safe. Some decorative items will have a stamp with a goblet/fork with a hash over it. This symbol is a new Italian product labeling mandate for items not intended to be used for serving food (eg Soap Pumps, Vases, Napkin Holders, Umbrella Stands, Picture Frames, Clocks). The function of the article is not intended for food, but the item still is crafted with food safe materials meeting FDA standards like all our Italian ceramics. You might also see numbers hand-signed on pieces of pottery. These numbers represent the actual kiln# the artist used to make your pottery and the date.

Hand-Crafted Tuscan Style Décor
BellaSoleil.com stocks one of the largest selections of Tuscan & Mediterranean inspired home decor. Departments include Tuscan Home Decor,Tuscan Wall Decor,Tuscan Lamps & Lighting,Tuscan Furniture,and our Spanish-Colonial San Miguel collection. Because each piece in our Home Décor collection is handcrafted, no two are exactly the same and variation is inevitable. Far from detracting from the piece's beauty, these variances are a reflection of the human hands that crafted it and add to its unique personality. However, if you need additional pictures of an item to help with your purchase, please contact customer service.

After shipment, your order may take additional 5-8 business days to arrive from the carriers transit times.

Oversized Items - Truck Freight
Some items we sell are too large or too heavy to ship using a Small Parcel carrier (e.g. UPS or FedEx). In these cases, we will ship via truck freight at no additional cost to you. Truck freight is different than standard UPS or FedEx in that you will be contacted by the shipping carrier to schedule a delivery appointment. A signature is required for all truck freight deliveries; someone must be available during business hours (Monday-Friday 8:00AM to 5:00PM) to sign for the delivery. Note that the driver is only responsible to deliver to curbside or driveway although in some cases, may take the items off the truck to your door. The most important thing to remember about truck freight is that you must inspect the package and its contents at the time of delivery. If you detect any damage, or if there is any reason for you to be concerned about damage, please refuse delivery or write "Product Damaged" clearly on the sheet that they ask you to sign. If the driver needs to leave before you have a chance to thoroughly inspect the shipment, write "Subject to inspection for concealed damage" next to your signature on the bill of lading. This ensures that if there is any damage, it will be easy to take care of the problem. Be sure to notify us within 24 hours of delivery to report any damage. Please allow an additional 1-3 days for truck freight delivery. Truck Freight ships to the Continental US Only (please, no PO Boxes).
