It's a price list from a pottery company.
For what it's worth, before and after the "broccolo" we have a pitcher and a vase.
If anyone has heard of this, even a description will do. Thanks. |

This is just a guess, but if the pottery is in Tuscany, I'd bet that your "broccolo" is a linguistic cousin of the formicolo (ant) and the conigliolo (rabbit). :-)))

| Note from asker to answererThanks - it's pretty much what I'd figured but it's always best to find confirmation. Didn't think they'd include cruciferous vegetables on the price list!
