He fell in love with her and decided he wanted her for himself. Without hesitation he entered the girl's house and declared his love for her. The girl, struck by so much feeling, reciprocated the young man's love, but when she learned that the Moor would leave her to return to his lands in the East, where a wife with offspring awaited her, she waited for darkness and as soon as he he put him to sleep, killed him, cut off his head, made a Vase of it where he planted some basil and put it on display outside on the balcony.The dark-haired man, thus, no longer able to leave, would always remain with her. Meanwhile, the basil grew luxuriantly and aroused the envy of all the inhabitants of the neighborhood. Not to be outdone, they had terracotta Vases made in the shape of Moor's head .In our shop you will also find the matching Lady sculpture and many other ceramic items.
