«This year the third collection of “Figure” will see an expansion of the symbolic presence of Christmas characters transformed into veritable objects of domestic use.
Two large Plates for pannettone find their way onto a table that has been decked out for the Yuletide festivities. The first, signed LPWK and Marcello Jori, depicts “Mago Sterlino”, ”Michael Natale”, “Rudy & Sventola” and “Pinocchio” in a red Christmas embrace, while in the second a lively winter landscape plays host to “Natalino”, his reindeer, “Orson” and “Hal Freddo”, characters in the adventures designed by Massimo Giacon.
The Pasrty Plate sees “Scia Natalino” on a set of skis in a somewhat precarious position on the peak of a mountaintop, while in the extended version of the celebrated Nativity scene, by now a bestseller in the collection, the shepherd “Salvatore” is accompanied by his two “Tiny Little Sheep”, by “La Signora Acqua” and by the three triumphant “Re Magi”.
The collection closes with the “Hug Tree” in which “Hal Freddo” tenderly embraces a Christmas tree».
