\nThe business has now been inherited by his children, Pierandrea and Micol, and continues in the boutique at Via Sant’Andrea 5, on the corner of Via Monte Napoleone.

Few know that the inspiration for that piece is linked to a passion for Napoleonic-era art: the French emperor chose the bee as his symbol. But, of course, the brooch wasn’t the only piece of jewelry that made the jeweler famous. Among his clients were the most prominent families of Milan’s bourgeoisie. And he likely will continue to do so.
