Crystal shop in Altare

We keep alive in Altare one of the most difficul glass working that we have been developing generation after generation for over 50 years.

Vanessa Cavallaro, when she was only 10, going around the family's laboratory, learnt the first notions about wheel engraving. She studied in artistic secondary school, made a master, specialised in knowledge of the techniques of glass working. All this theory together with a great practical ability make her reach a very high level in glass and crystal engraving. In 1993 she opened her laboratory with her own products and had relations with very important international producers. In 1997 she was asked to open the MACEF workshop in Milan thanks to the really high practical capacity reached.
