Alessandro is a great fun person, strongly opinionated and stubborn as he can be, all in all a real Tuscan man.
I am a stubborn strongly opinionated woman, my name is Alessandra... you can just imagine what happens every time he comes here... we spend probably half an hour quarreling and discussing about anything...gas price, political situation, taxes...and of course we never agree about anything...end up screaming on top of our lungs in minutes...at the end, we go to the bar, have a coffee together and proceed to the rest of our business.

He studied  and worked as a jewelry design artist in a big factory in Arezzo for several years, until he decided -like a real Tuscan stubborn and opinionated man, that he was too stubborn to follows other's people orders, so he jumped in his super fashionable Mini Cooper and started his own business.

He makes singular bronze castings of miniature fruits, animals and symbols dear to the Tuscan tradition, such as wild boars, ducks and rooster, or olive branches, grapes or sunflowers, and transforms them into napkins holders, wine charms, wine stoppers, and spice grinders.

He combined such traditional materials as bronzes and olive wood with modern ones as Plexiglas or stainless steel and   came up with one of our most successful collections.

He hand make and hand finishes personally all of his works.
