DETAILS

The cuckoo for those who love to collect matchboxes (and not only), as revisited by designer Marco Bedognetti in a special collection of cuckoo clocks for which the artist Nicole Da Porto, inspired by advertisements for circus shows, has created four graphic themes, "Pirondini's Circus".

Swedish matchboxes have been the ideal medium for the rapid dissemination of information for many years. Political events, wars, attacks, disasters, births and marriages of rulers, scientific discoveries are just some of the topics illustrated on the packaging of matches. The cuckoo is known to be a lazy bird that, rather than building its nest, uses that of other birds. Here, however, it found a new house, an old box of Swedish matches and between one hour and the next he enjoys swinging the last match left.

Pirondini

Created by brothers Ambrogio and Giovanni Pirondini, Pirondini Italia started off as a manufactuer of wooden products aimed at local food companies. Over the years, the focus changed and Pirondini started manufacturing home accessories and furnishings in collaboration with famous designers such as Riccardo Dalisi, Emilio Tadini, Andrea Branzi, Luca Scacchetti and Emanuele Luzzati, finding its own niche in the production of wooden wall clocks and cuckoo clocks. Production is carried out in the company's workshop using a combination of modern and traditional equipment, giving life to a collection that is at the same time traditional and contemporary.
