Unveiling the Box

Unveiling the Box "Mirabilia"

There is no way to explore the world without leaving home. How can we try to escape the everyday life to try to savor the intense feeling that, actually, only a trip can give us?
How can we know the beauty out there just by reading about it in a magazine…?
 
Today, I am happy to present Surprise Box No. 5.
When I put this box together, I curated a collection of objects that could tell the story of the Marche region, objects that caught my eye because of their uniqueness and history.
Discover Mirabilia's surprises.

Mirabilia’s Sites

Mirabilia’s Sites

In My Box from Italy, our craftspeople are the soul of the project.
We choose every artist carefully, making sure they represent Italian art and culture. Each and every item selected for the Boxes must bring you a piece of Italy to let you savor the beauty of this Country. Today, however, I would like to start by briefly introducing the area where I went in search of arts and crafts that could represent the Italian region of the Marche.

Box No. 5: The Mirabilia Box

Box No. 5: The Mirabilia Box

Today, I present to you a box Meravigliosa, which holds treasures that have transcended time but may not cross over into the present because of modernity that does not leave much room for ancient arts workshops. I will tell you their stories, because passing on the knowledge, the reason why these objects exist is one of the values of My Box from Italy.

Simone Taddei's leather workshop

A century-old tradition

The intent of My Box from Italy is to tell the story of Italy in a tangible way, through the works of craftspeople who hold within them not only the story of an art but also the story of a territory.
 
Today, I would like to tell you about a workshop that embodies one of the most well-known and representative arts in the Florentine context, the Art of Leatherworking.

THE COURAGE TO FOLLOW A DREAM

THE COURAGE TO FOLLOW A DREAM

 What I will tell you today is the story of an artist, a young Italian craftswoman.
I invited Sara for a coffee because I wanted to know her story.
How many people have you met in your life who dared to follow a dream?
I don't know many, but Sara is one of them.
And so, today I also tell you about courage, "coraggio" in Italian, a word derived from Latin, formed by cor, heart, and habeo, to have.
Avere cuore, to have a heart.
One might think that Sara's workshop was born by chance, the randomness of a few events that determined the path of a young artist. Stopping to listen to her instead, I discovered a true story of heart and courage that I would like to share with you.

UNVEILING THE BOX “DOLCE FAR NIENTE”

UNVEILING THE BOX “DOLCE FAR NIENTE”

Today, I’m happy to share the Box n°4 reveal!
 
The truth is, it's not at all easy to find the time to do nothing.
However, if you have received the first Surprise Box of this year, Box No. 4, you will have Italian treasures that will remind you of the importance of taking time for yourself and for the people who are important in your life, to do something with them and to spend time just for the purpose of feeling good, some would say "for the sweetness of doing nothing".
