Paola Navone created this special edition with a message for Japan in response to the Great East Japan Earthquake. Coordinated with pieces featuring a single point of Navone's message, the collection pairs minä perhonen's "where love is born" motif. The message "Let's walk together" from Italy and Japan is applied to various shapes, centered around the popular "Vecchio Ginori" white porcelain.

<strong>ISETAN｜Shinjuku Store</strong> "Design Tide Tokyo 2011" RICHARD GINORI "LOVE COMMUNICATION" paola navone & minä perhonen<br>"prova prima" Paola Navone matched minä perhonen's clear "smile" motif with the warm colors of the popular "prova prima" line.
