Ciao!

Boy, do we have news for you!

We are thrilled to announce that an exclusive collection of 40 Colori ties are being featured in the superb Victoria and Albert Museum shop! The Victoria and Albert Museum is one of the leading museums for art and design and has a permanent collection of over 2.3 million objects that cover over 5,000 years of human creativity.

To be approached by such a respected museum to be stocked in their shop was an absolute honor. Words can not describe our excitement about this new venture. We created an exclusive collection of four of our original designs with a new complimentary print polka dot print in the small end. This unique collection is now for sale in the spectacular V&A museum shop! Go check them out and explore the rest of the museum, we promise you will not be disappointed.
