90 years young

On December 10th Porro will celebrate its 90th birthday with a collection of wooden spinning tops designed by Piero Lissoni and exhibited in his Milan showroom.

On December 10th Porro will celebrate Christmas at its showroom in Milan, via Durini 15 and it will simultaneously start the celebrations for its 90th birthday, which will go on throughout 2015, with a collection of wooden spinning tops designed by Piero Lissoni.

The 5 models, with alternate colour tones, theme variations coming in several combinations of materials and woods, are handmade, by turning the 16 essences of Porro’s collection, with the simple yet precious taste of daily, handmade objects.

A child’s toy which is also loved by adults, universally famous, that marks the flow of time with its spins, showing new faces time after time, and enchanting with its shapes, materials and colours, it recounts Porro’s life along the story of contemporary design and wood research.
