Born from the collaboration between Plato Design and the designer Pellegrino Cucciniello, Nino investigates, with a touch of irony, how language and imagery can overturn the perception of a kitsch icon, the garden gnome, giving it a new and well-deserved dignity.‎ The union of low-poly imagery and Italian hand-worked monochromatic cement was the key to restoring dignity to this object.‎ His refined material, calibrated geometric abstraction and imperceptible optical corrections make each Nino unique and highly desirable.‎ HOW IT IS MADE Each Nino is handmade in Italy, where we meticulously check the quality of materials to offer a reliable and durable product.‎ TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION • MATERIAL: concrete • SIZE: 5x5x16 cm (2’’x 2’’x6.‎5’’) • WEIGHT: 0,5 kg (1 lbs) • USE: indoor and outdoor The product might vary slightly from the picture due to the nature of being 100% handmade.‎The union of designer Pellegrino Cucciniello’s low-poly imagery and Italian hand-worked monochromatic cement was the key to restoring dignity to the garden gnome.‎ The gnome can finally come inside and make its way to the lounge, the living room, the drawing room.‎ Nino, thanks to his refined materials and details, earns his rightful place with dignity, next to the great classics: picture frames and ornaments perched on bookcases.‎ His calibrated geometric abstraction and imperceptible optical corrections make each Nino unique and highly desirable.‎ Wishing to own a garden gnome is no longer a taboo.‎
