Each and every day, my team and I strive to live true to our vision – to bring the human connection into every interaction!
Many an entrepreneur can build a business that brings products to market, but how many can be as proud as I am to have shaped a company around a common set of values and a unified vision?
It brings me such joy to hear of the various ways we have made a difference in your lives and those of our artisans.
Let this holiday season – and always – be a celebration of the individuality of each of us, and the infinite connections amongst us all.

Since 1966, Ermengildo and his wife Renata have been crafting and decorating exquisite blown-glass ornaments in the picturesque village of Bellagio, overlooking Italy’s Lake Como. Together with their daughter Annalisa, they create highly collectible glass ornaments. With remarkable craftsmanship, each ornament is carefully hand-blown using traditional techniques as they gather a dab of molten glass at the end of a tube, and then heat it over a flame as they gently blow to inflate the shape. To finish, the ornaments are then hand-painted with charming motifs honoring our animal friends.
Their newest work of art is this cheery seamstress, Stitch. She starts as a hand-blown Polish glass ball upon which our artisans bestow a unique personality. Each ornament is given just the right head full of fanciful trims, including ribbons, buttons, pins, even a mini pin cushion.
