<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Debora, post: 347847, member: 1476&quot;]I don&#039;t know why it just wouldn&#039;t be a Batignani piece.&nbsp; They&#039;re a quality ceramic house.&nbsp; Known for gold-coating some pieces.&nbsp; Era&#039;s right.&nbsp; And, by way, here&#039;s an excerpt from the company&#039;s head obituary.</p><p><br /></p><p>Alberto Batignani was a ceramic artist and a great fan of Fiorentina.</p><p>On the professional front, he had taken over the business of his father and uncle in the Batignani Ceramics in &#039;66. He particularly liked to make ceramic statues by hand. Perfect works, one different from the other, small masterpieces of art and crafts that were sold all over the world. First in the workshop in via Adriani, then in via di Rusciano, and finally in Vallina (Bagno a Ripoli) where the company is still based, he worked tirelessly on that profession which was first of all a great love.</p><p><br /></p><p>Debora[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
