Materials: FW 24 Poldina Zafferano x Momonì
Momonì and Zafferano, both Veneto region-based brands, have come together to create an elegant second collection of Poldina portable lamps, with designs that take inspiration from Japan.
Following its successful collaboration during Milan Design Week 2024, Zafferano has teamed up again with Italian fashion brand Momonì to create a second collection of customised Poldina wireless table lamps.
Zafferano’s Poldina is well-known for its ability to be customised in various colours and artistic collaborations, from graffiti artist Mr. Savethewall, Peanuts (comic strip art originally by Charles Shulz in 1950), and British fabric studio Fermoie.
The new designs from Momonì’s FW 24 collection are printed onto the metal covers that transform the simple portable lamp into a piece of art.
“The strongest visual identity to convey the Momonì brand is tied to silk prints, a recurring theme that evolves each season based on the moodboard and defines the collection’s imagery,” explains the luxury fashion brand.
“Born in the Veneto region, Momonì has absorbed the historical influence of nearby Venice into its DNA, immediately identifying itself with the collective imagery of the “Silk Road”, known through the legendary Venetian merchant Marco Polo. Marco Polo’s iconic journey bridged the gap between the Occident and the Orient, serving as a symbol of the convergence of ideas, people, and cultures. Momonì is a brand that expresses sensory, emotional experiences and celebrates multicultural coexistence within its collections.
“The aesthetics of Momonì’s patterns this season are inspired by the hidden beauty of Japanese traditions: unique motifs and colour schemes reflect the essence of a creative vision that explores elegant shapes and precious fabrics, while further enhancing a useful and original product, making it even more captivating.”
“In this creative journey, where Italian design meets the art of fashion, the customised version of the Poldina battery lamp embodies the shared vision of two Italian brands: to bring joy and originality into everyday life.”
The new Momonì FW 24 Poldina collection is available as two items, one being the portable, rechargeable lamp in four colours, each paired with a metal cover printed in a matching pattern, and secondly the standalone patterned cover that can be used to personalise an existing lamp.
“Zafferano’s expertise in the world of home design made it the ideal partner to diversify our business, supporting its debut in a sector perfect for welcoming and translating our DNA,” says Michela Klinz, Momonì’s creative director. “We both have roots in the Veneto region and share a history of creativity built around values of authenticity and heritage projected into the future, which guarantee high-quality products, distinguished by their design and craftsmanship content.”
Federico de Majo, founder and president of Zafferano, adds: “Our inclination to capture and develop stimuli from different worlds found its perfect complement in Momonì and their shared creative approach, translated into an exclusive offering that embodies elegance, style, and functionality. This partnership allows us to showcase our great customisation ability, using motifs of great beauty and charm.”
