You have heard me speak many times about how I have built Uno Alla Volta to be a tribute to creativity of the individual artisan, and to the uniqueness of each handcrafted treasure. Yet, our company also pays tribute to the power of a team. There’s nothing like bringing all these creative individuals – our artisans, our merchants, our photographers, our designers – together and watching the collaborative process unfold. We devote this issue to the springtime celebrations of St. Patrick’s Day, Easter, Passover, Mother’s Day…and let’s not forget the Kentucky Derby! Just as each item has been touched by the spirit of the artisan who created it, so too has it been touched by the spirit of every individual involved in the creative process. Terri
