Going Cuckoo over Clocks

Karen

Thanks to meeting and working with designers, architects, photographers and artists,  Diamantini & Domeniconi are able to offer a family of objects different from each other but united by the lightness of an existing design, and always ironic.

For over forty years the brand Diamantini & Domeniconi guarantees the quality of items made entirely in Italy, combining the use of industrial technology to “know how” typical of artisan production.  This is clearly evident in their collection of Cuckoo Clock.

Love is in the Air

Karen

“Romeo save me I’ve been feeling so alone.

I keep waiting for you but you never come.

Is this in my head?  I don’t know what to think

He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said

Marry me Juliet you’ll never have to be alone

I love you and that’s all I really know

I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress

it’s a love story baby just say yes”

(Love Story – Taylor Swift)
