Two minds, one aspiration, one desire. The desire to create, transform and interpret. A common passion: glass. That is how a laboratory of ideas was born. In 1955, Pierangelo Gallotti and Luigi Radice founded an artistic space dedicated to glass furnishings. Tradition and innovation blend together and create a small and precious production. The first works are lighting fixtures, furniture items and mirrors. All the pieces are unique. All exclusively handmade.
The two partners realise that one cannot stop at artistic production and decoration and feel the need and desire to expand the collection. Therefore, they enrolled at the School of Applied Industrial Art of the Castello Sforzesco in Milan. Here they received courses in drawing and decoration, understanding in detail all aspects of technical and ornamental design.
A unique project was created, a new challenge, Gallotti&Radice was born.
Gallotti&Radice is characterised by a meticulous production, which requires continuous research and a great knowledge and mastery of the different processes. It is not a matter of labour carried out by just any worker. They are craftsmen of the highest level, who know the material. They know glass. Masters and disciples who keep the secrets of the craft. A tradition that has been passed down for generations.
