Fornasetti Occhi Mug

The Occhi Mug, part of Fornasetti 's Tema e Variazioni collection, features one of the most iconic elements of the Atelier's imagery: the gaze of Lina Cavalieri.

An enigmatic and intense eye emerges on this hand-decorated porcelain cup, taken from the famous variations Piero Fornasetti dedicated to the singer's face, transforming it into an unparalleled visual repertoire. The decoration, applied with extreme precision, creates a magnetic effect that captures the attention and invites one to dwell on the details. Each mug, thanks to craftsmanship, may have slight differences, signs of craftsmanship that make each piece unique. Designed for everyday use, this mug goes beyond its practical function: it becomes a small collector's item, capable of combining the pleasure of a convivial moment with the evocative power of Fornasetti's language. Cavalieri's gaze, ironic and mysterious, transforms the act of drinking into a direct encounter with the artist's visual universe, in which play and graphic rigour coexist harmoniously. This cup is a fragment of Italian design history, a detail that enriches everyday life with personality and invites us to enter Fornasetti's imaginative world.
