Siamo tutti uno (We are one)
Roberta Mari e Silvia Zylberman Pio
Siamo tutti uno (We are one) is a collection of modular vases dedicated to the Indigenous peoples of the earth. The vases are entirely handmade in Italy and their shapes, finishes and colors are inspired by the aesthetics and body art of traditional native tribes.
Diverse elements can be freely combined like totems to create unique, personalized compositions. For every pot sold, a percentage will be donated to Survival International, the global organization that supports and protects tribal and Indigenous peoples’ rights. Indigenous peoples are the true guardians of the natural world.

Sal | Salis is a project inspired by ancient civilizations and ancient times, when the first cities arose and salt was considered white gold. This collection is inspired by nature and the complex geometrical salt crystal formations. Sal | Salis is a line of modular handmade objects that combines four different silhouettes to adapt to various living spaces. Salis is a collection of stackable vases, to be used in groups or individually, which form captivating plays of light and shadow wherever they are placed. Sal is an oversized version of Salis: its three stacked elements form a sculpture, or, separately they can become a coffee table with pouf, storage units or complementary design objects.
