In the Middle Ages, Siena was partitioned into 17 neighborhoods. Each one was represented by an unique emblem and a colorful banner. These neighborhoods developed a tradition of fierce rivalry that continues today as the Palio, a competitive bareback horse race that takes place on July 2 and August 16 every year in the city's main piazza Piazza del Campo.
The location of the Chiocciola Contrada is situated in the south-western corner of the city; traditionally, its residents worked as terracotta makers. Chiocciola's motto is With slow and deliberate steps, snail leaves the battlefield triumphant. The district's patron saints are the apostles Peter and Paul with a feast day of June 29. Chiocciola's symbol is a snail. Its colours are red and yellow, trimmed with blue.
F.lli Mari Maioliche is the only company in Deruta authorized to reproduce the Palio decorations. If you check under every pieces, you will see this logo and the the written Consorzio Tutela Palio di Siena. F.lli Mari Maioliche is the only in Deruta associated with this consortium.
