Description

Introducing the Pochette the Wine Maypole Machine, an exquisite accessory that captures the essence of Naples' rich cultural heritage. Crafted from 100% silk twill, this luxurious pochette is designed with meticulous attention to detail, featuring hand-edged finishes that enhance its elegance.

Inspired by the vibrant festivals and sacred celebrations that have defined Naples for centuries, this piece pays homage to the historic Cuccagna rite. This tradition allowed the less fortunate to celebrate in a momentary reversal of their daily struggles, culminating in the joyous looting of the Cockaigne Machine—a symbol of abundance and community spirit.

The pochette showcases a stunning design based on a drawing by Cristofor Russo, depicting the magnificent Cockaigne Machine erected in 1740 during the celebrations for the birth of the Infanta Royal. Framed by the iconic silhouette of Mount Vesuvius and adorned with the coats of arms of five prominent Neapolitan families, this accessory serves as a wearable piece of history.

Perfect for adding a touch of artistic flair to any outfit, the Pochette the Wine Maypole Machine is not just an accessory, but a celebration of life, culture, and the enduring spirit of Naples. Elevate your style with this unique piece that tells a story and connects you to the vibrant celebrations of the past.
