Alessi AMGI23SET Amir & Camelus Statuettes (Set of 2)
Set of two figurines in porcelain. Hand-decorated. "Amir & Camelus", designed by LPWK (Laura Polinoro Workshop) - Massimo Giacon, belongs to the collection of figurines that enriches the family of Christmas characters brought to life surrounding the "Presepe", (Nativity scene) project in 2007. Along with the small decorative porcelain fi gurines, this collection also includes a series of fi gurines with built-in microfunctions, such as the "Tingle bell" and Incense burners, or truly new additions to the ritual of tea, like the Mug and the Biscuit box. For adorning the branches of the Christmas tree, we have dreamed up hanging Christmas ornaments and a star climbing up to the tree top... "With a little help.". (Alberto Alessi)
