Information about the artist and/or manufacturer: Guido Cacciapuoti, born in Naples in 1892, comes from an ancient family of majolica makers, with whom he learned the secrets of ceramic art. In 1927, he founded "Grès e ceramiche d'arte" in Milan with his brother. A highly talented modeler, he distinguished himself through his magnificent sculptures, particularly those depicting animals. In 1930, following the premature death of his brother, he became the sole owner of the company. The factory immediately experienced great success and gained international renown, particularly due to the sculptures of Guido Cacciapuoti, who passed away in 1953 and is regarded as one of the most important Italian ceramicists of the first half of the 20th century.
