Lemon Branch Copper Backsplash — Hand-Hammered Mediterranean & Tuscan Kitchen Wall Art

The lemon branch is the defining botanical motif of the Mediterranean kitchen. The lemon on the branch, the leaf beside it, the fruit and the tree together — the image that appears on the tilework of the Amalfi Coast, on the majolica pottery of Sicily, on the painted ceramics of Provence, on the kitchen walls of every home that has ever been organized around the pleasure of the Mediterranean table. In copper relief, the lemon’s texture and the branch’s leaves become the most sensory and most immediately evocative Mediterranean kitchen composition in the catalog.

A hand-hammered copper backsplash and wall art piece of lemons and leafy branches in dimensional relief — the fruit centered in the composition, the leaves completing the branch, the copper field as the warm ground that holds them — built up from a flat copper sheet one hammer stroke at a time by our family using traditional chasing and repoussé techniques passed through generations. The lemons, the branch, and the copper field are the composition: the fruit as the subject, the branch as the structure, the warm metal as the Mediterranean light that falls on both. Available in all 15 finishes — with two or three lemon variations. Over 10,000 pieces made.

The lemon (Citrus limon) — originating in South Asia, introduced to the Mediterranean by Arab traders in the 10th century, and cultivated on the terraced hillsides of the Amalfi Coast, Sicily, and the Ligurian Riviera since the 13th century — is the most specifically Mediterranean fruit in the Western culinary and decorative tradition. The lemon groves of Amalfi — the sfusato amalfitano, the elongated lemon of the Amalfi Coast, protected by IGP designation since 2001 — are the most painted and most photographed citrus groves in the world. The lemon branch appears on the majolica tilework of the Neapolitan kitchen, on the hand-painted ceramics of Vietri sul Mare and Deruta, on the printed cotton of the Provençal kitchen, and on the painted furniture of the Sicilian farmhouse. In the American kitchen, the lemon motif is the most specifically Mediterranean and most immediately evocative of the Italian and French country kitchen traditions — the botanical subject that says, more than any other, that this kitchen is organized around the pleasure of the table and the warmth of the Mediterranean sun.
