Alessi — AMGI42SET2 | Paolo, Francesca & Beatrice in porcelain

Two tiny hand-painted figures embody the weight of a thousand-year-old story. Paolo and Francesca - and with them Beatrice, a third silent presence - take shape in decorated white porcelain, figurines standing just ten centimeters tall that inhabit the fine line between collectible object and literary icon. The smooth porcelain surface receives the color with the same delicacy with which Dante welcomed their souls into the Comedy: with pity, precision, and a certain measure of wonder. The design springs from the visionary mind of Massimo Giacon, a Venetian artist and designer who spent decades immersed in pop culture, comics, radical design, and conceptual irony before arriving at this unexpected synthesis. Within the **A di Alessi** collection - the freest and most experimental laboratory of the Crusinallo manufacturer, where the design object becomes a cultural autobiography - Giacon reinterprets Dante's imagery in his unmistakable style: naive figuration on the surface, dense with allusions beneath the skin. The set is part of the autumn/winter range, the season best suited to great stories. At Stilmobili, we chose this piece because it represents exactly what we look for: design that does not need to justify itself through function. It is a gift for those who love literature and design alike, for those who furnish their home as they tend to a library - with affection and intention. Ideal as a designer gift, as a discreet presence on a shelf, or as a conversation piece in a living room that knows how to listen. *Project notes:* Set of two hand-decorated porcelain figurines.
