Texture of Home (illy anteprima 1999)
Texture of Home (illy anteprima 1999)
You might know the regular illy collection Texture of Home set, which was designed by Francis Ford Coppola. Beside that set and the TV commercial for illy Italy, he made a special set for the May 1999 Anteprima convention (by illycaffe) in Rome.
This set comes in a plexi-glass film reel. Both the cups and saucers are signed and numbered like the regular set. But on the bottom you can find the inscription illy anteprima 1999 and in front of the number are the letters "FFC" added.
