42Article 2(7) of the Berne Convention permits the parties to that convention to grant to industrial designs and models a specific protection, which may differ from and which may exclude the protection afforded to literary and artistic works falling within the scope of that convention, and to determine the conditions governing such protection. At the same time, that provision does not rule out those two forms of protection being cumulative.
