Description from the seller

Alessi 'Peppo al pozzo' Christmas figure – AMGI53SET - Porcelain, hand-painted, by LPWK/Massimo Giacon, 2007

This enchanting and rare porcelain Christmas figure from Alessi, called 'Peppo al pozzo,' playfully brings festive joy and a touch of humor to any Christmas decoration. Designed by LPWK and Massimo Giacon, this characterful piece belongs to Alessi's iconic Christmas collection and combines high-quality craftsmanship with a lovable, storytelling design.

Product details:
Brand: A di Alessi
Designer: LPWK/Massimo Giacon
Design year: 2007
Hand-painted porcelain, carefully crafted with great care.
The packaging is indeed an Alessi packaging but no longer the original packaging for the figure.

Condition: very good (see pictures)

Rare collectible item, no longer available anywhere and very hard to find!

Description
The figure shows Peppo full of enthusiasm at the fountain – a charming, intricately detailed motif that perfectly reflects the typical, humorous style of the Alessi Christmas collection.

Design features
Massimo Giacon, known for his colorful and playful style, brings this piece to life with a minimalist yet expressive design.

Special highlights:
Artistic and collectible: a perfect addition to any Alessi or Christmas collection – this piece combines traditional Christmas symbolism with contemporary Italian design.
High-quality craftsmanship: Made from the finest porcelain and lovingly hand-painted to bring every detail to life.


Manufacturing process
Each figure is a hand-painted unique piece.
Through careful firing at 800 °C, the porcelain achieves a mirror-smooth surface and becomes extremely hard, preventing cracks or hairline fractures. In traditional porcelain painting, each figure is lovingly decorated with cheerful colors. This is done entirely by hand with a brush, not through a standardized foil coating. Therefore, each figure is slightly different and uniquely unmistakable.


Massimo Giacon
Massimo Giacon, born in 1961 in Padua, is a comic artist and illustrator, and is considered a pioneer of the renewal of the Italian comics scene. He divides his time between activities as a graphic designer, artist, designer, and musician.

LPWK – Laura Polinoro:

During this period, she developed numerous editorial and communication projects. The products produced during this time are marked with the abbreviation 'CSA'. Since 2004, the products she has overseen bear the label 'LPWK'.

The Alessi porcelain Christmas figures.
The figures are a beautiful addition to the Alessi presepe nativity scene, but even without the nativity, they are cheerful Christmas decorations. The figures are hand-painted and can be placed near the nativity or used separately as decorations during the holidays. Give them a nice spot, and these Christmas figures will instantly bring a smile to your face!
