CHERRYWOOD ELEGANCE: BRIONVEGA’S TIMELESSRADIOFONOGRAFO GETS A LIMITED MAKEOVER
In the world of design, some things are timeless, and the Brionvega Radiofonografo is a prime example. Originally crafted by the iconic Castiglioni brothers in 1965, this masterpiece of art and acoustics has found a new exclusive finish – Cherrywood. Limited to just 100 pieces, these radiofonografos are destined to become cherished family heirlooms. In April 2023, the final unit of the Canaletto walnut radiofonografo was sold, drawing global attention and acclaim. Now, the spotlight shifts to the elegance of Cherrywood. Cherry trees, known for their strong yet gentle nature, mirror the duality of the radiofonografo – a fusion of acoustic reliability and unrivaled design. Each radiofonografo is meticulously handcrafted in Italy, a process honed over the years. The Cherrywood veneer highlights the unique beauty of each piece, thanks to the natural grain that sets them apart. The skilled craftsmen behind these creations are nothing short of industrial artists, painstakingly perfecting each radiofonografo. From July 1, 2023, enthusiasts can order their very own Cherrywood Radiofonografo at brionvega.com. But if you can’t wait, our partners have the exclusive opportunity to pre-order in June, ensuring you can showcase this extraordinary piece ahead of the crowd.

This collaboration marks the first convergence of BIMBA Y LOLA’s avant-garde and progressive aesthetic with the artistic and gender-neutral vision championed by Alejandro Gómez Palomo since 2015. Hailing from the workshop in Posadas, PALOMO SPAIN has redefined high fashion by transcending the constraints of a small Andalusian town, transcending stereotypes, and transforming folklore and artisanal passion into a globally alluring creative expression. Despite their apparent differences, both brands share a personal yet cosmopolitan identity. The BIMBA Y PALOMO collection unfolds as a striking canvas of black, white, and red, intricately interwoven with the rose motif. This iconic element takes shape as a delicate, transparent print on handcrafted knitwear and as a luxurious coat on mini-dresses, sweaters, and halter-neck tops. The rose is elevated to a central theme, adorning necklaces, bracelets, and oversized earrings or assembled into a stunning bouquet of rings. This collaboration showcases a fusion of creativity and craftsmanship, blurring boundaries and setting a new standard for artistic expression.
