The Harlequin’s coat, a harmless symbol that originated in the Comedia Dell Arte, suggests mystery, intrigue and happy endings. The curtains open to reveal two masks, one laughing, the other crying; comedy blended with tragedy – life itself.
The collection in red and black Chinese lacquer pays homage to the world of theatre, a celebration of life, colour and imagination. Time has left no marks on the Harlequin’s face and the emotion he still inspires proves that no art, no creation can be accomplished without time or passion.
S.T. Dupont has both time and passion, and thus presents its “Teatro” collection:
