The Studio
We are a sculpture studio that for over 50 years collaborates with artists and sculptors to produce marble and granite sculpture of all dimensions. This can mean producing the entire sculpture from the provided model or assisting the sculptor by roughing out a work to save time.
Over the years we have created a group of very talented artisans, capable of producing just about anything in stone; from 5 meter tall sculpture to the most intricate carving of the wrinkles on a tissue box. We love to be challenged as that leads to the development of new techniques in structure, pinning and surface.
We are a family of artisans that work closely together with the artists who entrust the production of their sculpture to us. We take great pride in producing the best work for an artist and our capacity to remain elastic in our collaboration. It is important to all of us that the sculptors who work in the studio are interested in continuing to learn and remain open to dialogue, creating an exchange of ideas and solutions for any project.

CAMAIORE
We have moved out of Pietrasanta to the countryside of Camaiore into a new modern building, just over the city line from Pietrasanta. We love Camaiore and the fabulous view of the mountains and most of all the constant breeze from the sea in the summer. We now have an enormous olive grove and sculpture park behind the studio for exhibitions.
Located on the northwest coast of Tuscany, 6 km from the beach and 30 km from the 1,200 mt summit of Mount Altissimo. We are just 4.5 km south of Pietrasanta. Due to the proximity of the Carrara marble quarries, artisans have created marble sculpture and architectural ornament in the area for centuries. The surrounding territory offers an array of support industries and suppliers such as specialty tool shops, marble and granite suppliers, transporters, crane services, specialized machine shops, mold makers, clay enlargement studios, 7 bronze foundries and much more. It is a virtual paradise for the sculptor with professional support at every turn.
