A Lover Letter to Italy
With even more privilege is the opportunity I had to work with suppliers there directly. As Italy slowly opens back up, I like to share some of my travel photos and hard to find products made in Italy by independent producers.
The people of Italy will overcome the psychological and financial trauma they endured during this pandemic with their beauty and vitality. But we can help them regain their footing by making the right purchase choices now. Independent makers don’t spend their budget on flashy marketing campaigns or bold fonts and colors to gain attention. The heart and soul are invested in refining the craft and perfecting the product.
With great pleasure and the help of my Roman friend Teresa Venezia, I am bringing to Maison Modulare a series of very special home and personal fragrances that will drop every weekend this summer.
I asked Teresa if we can donate a portion of proceeds to help rebuild Italian small businesses. And she said yes, but it would be the greatest help if we can buy more of their magnificent products that are otherwise unknown and difficult to procure and help everyone get back to work asap.
