Here is a description in Spanish, and the one in English we already know
Don Giovanni preza pelo design extremamente leve, que o torna adequado tanto para o ambiente mais clássico até os espaços ultramodernos e devido a esta característica é capaz de se comunicar com qualquer estilo de mobiliário e decoração.
Don Giovanni values the extremely lightweight design that makes it suitable for both the more classical setting up the ultramodern spaces and because of this feature is able to communicate with any style of furniture and decor.
