"OrienTales" Stefano Giovannoni with Rumiko Takeda

In collaboration with the National Palace Museum.

These three wise monkeys , together they embody the proverbial principle to "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil". The three monkeys are Mizaru, covering his eyes, who sees no evil; Kikazaru, covering his ears, who hears no evil; and Iwazaru, covering his mouth, who speaks no evil.

The OrienTales line sees the opening of a new phase in the joint project between Alessi and the National Palace Museum in Taiwan. Thanks to the materials adopted (fine bone china, bakelite and varnished metal) and the decorative details, its not an exaggeration to say that this is a high quality and technically challanging project.

This new family of objects is part of ongoing collaboration with the National Palace Museum in Taiwan, which began in 2007 with the "Chin Family".

What role has the Museum played in this project? What form did their involvement take?

In actual fact, it was coming into close contact with the extraordinary collection of art works and the National Palace Museum that set Stefano's imagination racing, inspiring him to explore the millennial tradition of Chinese applied arts and develop his own contemporary interpretation of them. This interpretation is in keeping with the playful style of which the designer is an acknowledged master, a characteristic that, in the designs presented today, takes a new form.
