The Calendarbook 2013 is a mobile consisting of round disks, strung together with wrapped cotton thread. Each disk includes two months, one on either side. The calendar is stored in a white translucent paper envelope and fastened with a pin.

The calendar is designed and hand-made by Silvana Amato, Rome, Italy, and Angela Liguori, Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, in collaboration with Marta B Dau.
