From Mario Trimarchi's "La Stanza dello Scirocco" collection, the Scirocco Necklace is inspired by Trimarchi's childhood memories of playing cards that would swirl mid-air from the gust of a Sicilian tornado wind. Constructed from mirror-polished stainless steel, the piece creates an alluring display of light and shadow on the skin. Made by Alessi, an Italian-based manufacturer whose work is featured in the Museum's collection and has been displayed in several exhibitions.
