A human language, but above all the expression of his own personality: this is what Fausto Maria Franchi says through his work, an artisan’s work which through design, moulding and/or fine goldsmith techniques, becomes object, sculpture or jewel, as if testimony to the value and beauty of the “craft”, and the expression of a millenary technique.

To transmit impulses and ideas to the hand which the mind has developed; watching them take the desired form; controlling the progress as they are developed. These are the sensations, emotions, joys of which Fausto Maria Franchi may be proud.

The history of gold and silver, running parallel to developments in technique, merges with the evolutionary history of man. And this is what enables Fausto Maria Franchi to feel that the models he has designed and executed are a full-fledged part of an artisan and artistic world that has won its place in history.
