Colours are a bit subdued for Desimone, but I can see similarity in the design.

It's a very nice piece but I also don't think it's DeSimone. It's a completely different style and colouring.

I reckon its a Picasso Big Laughter

Walter Del Pellegrino confirmed it as not DeSimone. I agree with you both, it is much nicer IMO than DeSimone, I find it a garish.
