FORNASETTI

Tema e Variazioni no.24 porcelain wall plate 26cm

Art, animals, architecture and other natural motifs all get the surrealist treatment under the whimsical eye of Fornasetti, but it’s the face of Italian opera singer Lina Cavalieri that serves as the brand’s principal muse. Her features (in over 500 variations, no less) adorn everything from decorative ceramics and scented candles to cushions and furniture, all hand-painted by Italian artisans in the distinctive black-and-white illustrative style.
