Ruby Press

I know that when I think of Fornasetti, I picture the iconic surreal face plates, pillows and other decorative items…

{classic face plates at Moss}

{wallpaper with the iconic faces at Rose and Radish}

{and reversible pillows at My Own Space}

I’ll sheepishly admit that I had no idea of the range of his work- nor much about the man behind the iconic design, Piero Fornasetti, who was a painter, sculptor, interior designer and creator/designer of over 11,000 items.

Some vintage Fornasetti pieces for sale…

{I may have to order this poster!}

{red/gold “army” tray}

{metal waste basket}

{chic umbrella stand}
