The MoMA Design Store is selling household goods from Italy

This principle fuels Fattobene, an online store that celebrates curious traditional household goods from all over Italy. Its products, 150 of which are now being sold at the MoMa Design Store in New York, includes charming Genoese soaps, handmade brooms, healing Ligurian sulfur sticks, graphic floor tiles by Milanese architect Gio Ponti, and sexy tape dispensers manufactured by an industrial machine shop in Lombardy. Fattobene, which means “well-made” in Italian, is the brainchild of lifestyle journalist Anna Lagorio and stage-director-turned-photographer Alex Carnevali.
