The famed Medicis ruled Florence during the Renaissance. Comprised of bankers and wool merchants, the influential family were patrons of the arts and contributed greatly to the prosperity of Florence. The traditional Medici coat of arms is beautiful and ornate with colors of red, blue, and gold, and our new Medici collection takes a modern spin on it by highlighting one of those components - the golden palle, or balls. At once historic and contemporary, the Medici Gold Medium Oval Platter honors Italian heritage while also exuding fresh inspiration.
