DiCesare Designs at Matsuya Ginza

DiCesare Designs at Matsuya Ginza

Once again DiCesare Designs items were on display at Matsuya Ginza Department Store the biggest umbrella show in Japan! This year we displayed our latest collection at our booth beneath a great display of several hundred hanging umbrellas in Matsuya’s main hall.

彫刻への情熱

DiCesare Sculpted Wood Hinge

彫刻は私の情熱だ。子供の頃からそうでした。私にとって傘やパラソルのデザインは、彫刻と建築の中間に位置する。試作品のために木彫りをすることもある。還元的な彫刻は私の得意分野ではないかもしれませんが、多くの喜びをもたらしてくれます。
