Entering Il Cirmolo is like a constant discovery: on one side, antique signs, enameled plaques, and metal letters that once marked streets, shops, and advertising signs; on the other, cult statuettes, vintage puppets, and Disney and comic book icons that capture the eye and the memory.
There's a harmonious contrast: "industrial" objects coexist with playfulness, nostalgia, and what was once quotidian and is now symbolic. English ceramics, antique candlesticks, oddly shaped teapots, and decorative curiosities enhance the visual variety. This isn't about accumulation: each piece is thoughtfully chosen, with a focus on revealing little-known beauty.
Visitors often comment that every corner of the shop holds a "discovery": a small, forgotten sign, a rare puppet, an enamel plaque with vintage lettering. It's this tension between "curatorial vocation" and "constant surprise" that makes Il Cirmolo a place to visit, explore, and treasure forever.
