The Story Behind Fornasetti: Art Meets Function
Founded by the Milanese artist Piero Fornasetti, the brand is known for its surrealist motifs, architectural details, and the instantly recognizable face of opera singer Lina Cavalieri—his lifelong muse. Today, under the creative direction of his son, Barnaba Fornasetti, the brand continues to blur the lines between art and decor.
Whether it’s a decorative plate, a whimsical candle, or a handcrafted piece of furniture, every Fornasetti object tells a story—making it perfect for design enthusiasts who appreciate meaning as much as beauty.
