Born in Salerno on May 26, 1977, Onofrio Acone is an entrepreneur with a diverse career spanning multiple industries. Since 1997, he has been a key figure in the fields of design and interior furnishings, became a restaurateur in 2005, and in 2008, together with his closest friends, founded CINQUESEGNI, an innovative and forward-thinking winery.

Onofrio’s journey began in the world of ceramics, where he had the privilege of taking his first creative steps in the workshop founded by his parents in 1982. This humble space, nestled in the garage of their home in a small town in the province of Salerno, was where he grew up surrounded by the vibrant energy of a small artisanal lab. Immersed in this atmosphere, he developed a profound passion for ceramics—a material of endless potential—and cultivated his creativity from an early age.

The “Selene” decor takes its name from the goddess of the moon, whose gentle and changeable light reflects on the waves and surfaces. The curved and intertwined lines recall the foam of the waves or a natural intertwining of branches embracing each other. Onofrio Acone sought to represent the water’s ability to transform and protect, like a cradle that envelops and accompanies. “Selene” is a hymn to metamorphosis and the beauty of natural cycles.
