The Moon cradle

The artefact

Enchanting and welcoming, the Moon Cradle stems from the artistic inspiration of the architect Antonello Cuccu and is representative of the fruitful combination of expert craftsmanship and design, a well-known feature of Pietro Fois’s carpenter’s shop. The dedication to the moon is expressed through the silhouettes of the two donkeys, regarded as sacred animals, who bear with patience and care the vividly coloured receptacle.
