Whether it is the first day of your trip or the last, what we choose to carry often defines the experience – as long as our dreams, our stories and our memories are always with us… This is the promise of Sense of Lake, a collection of curios to make yours an everlasting journey. One that begins before you land on Lake Como and follows you all the way home. After all, objects of beauty have their own kind of magic: They keep our memories alive. We selected each fascinating piece in this collection to give guests the same joy we experienced at each new discovery, sending the timeless, incandescent charms of Lake Como – the true Sense of Lake – to shine in all four corners of the world.
All of these curiosities and wonders share a common purpose, to give life the same sun-kissed glow, the same carefree spirit of an unforgettable day on Lake Como. Like the cantastorie of old, we travel through Italy collecting stories that captivate us, that tell a tale of excellence and artistry in every seam, every scent, every whimsical detail. And we endeavor only to work with authentic, sensitive interpreters of Italian style, craftsmen and women expertly turning dreams and ideas into tiny masterpieces. In fact, many of our made-in-Italy collaborations either began as – or have evolved into – lasting friendships of shared passion offering exclusive, special-edition items available only here. It is our hope that Sense of Lake will inspire in you the same thrill of discovery we feel as its curators.
“Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Every revelation, every idea, every gift in our collection is designed to surprise and delight you, heightening your senses like the sun exploding into a thousand diamonds on the water, like the heady scent of jasmine on a Lake Como breeze, like falling in love all over again. This is our Sense of Lake: a hint of orange as the sun warms your heart; a shimmer of gold reflecting Lake Como’s magic; a touch of silk as timeless as the charms of a lakeside palace. Isn’t that what travel is all about? Finding true belonging in a faraway place and making it a part of us forever and ever.
