Wedding Gifts

The best wedding gift you can give us is your attendance at our wedding in Pantelleria.

We have also created wedding gift registries ('wedding lists' in British English) on Amazon.com and at Casidea ai Parioli in Rome (User: Roncaglia OR Yoo). Jane has spent hours researching the ideal products in each category, and we would be happy to receive any of the items listed on our gift registries. Alternatively, you may opt to gift the Korean way, which is cash in a special envelope. Read an interesting debate/thread about the latter on an online ESL forum.

If you would like to give a more personal or unusual gift, we would love to receive the paintings and glasswork of Paolo's maternal grandmother, Monica Bratt. Here is an example of one of her works found online:


Other ceramic artists whose works would make wonderful gifts are the ethereal bone china pieces of Helen Felcey, who exhibited at Ceramic Art London 2007...


... and the similarly beautiful bone china, paper and glass works of ceramic and glass artist, Andrea Walsh.


Paolo loves wine and has a fledging collection. Jane is very supportive of this passion and especially enjoys the days when the wines are uncorked. The following items would be welcome wine-related gifts.
  • Wine fridge (European 220-230 V, 50 Hz)
  • Decanter
  • Riedel or Spiegelau crystal stemware for tastings
