Duccio Banchi

A rare example of expertise handed down from master to apprentice, just like in the ancient Florentine craft workshops. Vasco Cappuccini opened this workshop way back in 1925, and his only student, Lamberto Banchi, took over the business in 1946. Today, the company is run with passion by the latter’s son Duccio, a craftsman in bronze specialised in the creation of small decor accessories and decorative items, which can also be made to order. He is also an expert in the restoration of antique objects.
