Ulderico Pinfildi

Ulderico was born and raised in the family-run workshop and, thus, as he himself says, the art of nativity scene-making runs deep in his blood. His sculptures are imbued with artisan skill but also with passion and love of his craft which, like the creation of every real artist, bears the “sign of birthright”. This workshop offers the care and attention for details and finishing touches, as well as the atmosphere typical of the world in which the Neapolitan art of nativity scene-making was born back in the 1700s.
