All About Me

Ciao! I’m Meri, and I’m the founder of DECORO, your gateway to Authentic Italian Design. But let me take you back to where it all began…Growing up in Italy, I was surrounded by beauty, history, and tradition. But what truly captivated me from a young age wasn’t just the landscapes or the art—it was the people. I developed a deep fascination with the incredible craftsmanship I saw in every corner of my country. From handwoven textiles in small villages to delicate ceramics passed down through generations, I began to understand that these weren’t just objects. They were pieces of a culture, a story told through the hands of skilled artisans.As I grew older, my love for travel took me far beyond Italy. London became my home, but my heart never stopped yearning for new discoveries. I traveled the world, meeting people from all walks of life, learning from their cultures, and witnessing the magic of local craftsmanship wherever I went. I realized that no matter where I was, the stories woven into traditional crafts were universal—they connected us all, no matter our background or language.It was these encounters, these stories, that sparked my passion for preserving craftsmanship. I understood how essential these heritage skills are—not just for creating beautiful things, but for protecting the traditions, the memories, and the identities of communities.And so, DECORO was born. Through this platform, I wanted to share with the world the timeless beauty of Italian craftsmanship, each piece telling its own story and carrying a bit of Italy’s soul with it.So, welcome to DECORO—where every item has a tale to tell, and every design is a celebration of craftsmanship, culture, and heritage.
