Fornasetti Serratura On Malachite Bookends

Fornasetti's native Italian tongue lends insight into this collection: the 'Serratura su Malachite' decor spotlights the face of opera singer Lina Cavalieri - by now an established signature of the label - peering through the door lock, 'serratura', combined with lacquered green 'malachite'. So informed, we can appreciate the dynamic force behind these bookends, a hand-silkscreened and hand-lacquered pair that's as arresting as it is beautiful.
