| Comments: |
'Casale' may denote a village or hamlet, or refer to Casale di Sotto, Casale di Sopra, or one of the various settlements called Casale in the hills outside Verona. Note this specimen, with its bright yellow filler, resembles no. 454 'Breccia del Giannicolo'. There is nothing to confirm it comes from the Verona area.
