The exploration of the human body began with iron or tar cut-out shapes, later printed on paper, which evolved into three-dimensional ceramic sculptures, using raku firing or synthetic resins with marble powder. In this piece, the anthropomorphic form is absorbed by the bronze color created through double firing, evoking a fossilized image frozen in time. The technique combines double-fired ceramics with the raku process.

Dreams. Values. Architects. Projects. Beauty
Now more than ever, Milan is in the international spotlight. Always the capital of a powerful industrial and commercial network, it is today recognized worldwide as a vital hub of culture, art, creativity, and innovation—in other words, of knowledge. InMilan, knowledge means knowing how to learn, study, search, experiment, take action, change, and risks. It is, in fact, embedded in the culture of the city to never stop and never accept the obvious. On the contrary, in Milan, they look everywhere for newsolutions for living in beauty and for pursuing wealth as a way to live and let live with generosity of spirit.
These are the reason why the company wanted to include Milan in its name: to reflect their city and its values, in which they believe so strongly. While Firmamento stays for the firmament above us, the sky sparkling with ideas. Dreams. Values. Architects. Projects. Beauty.
Values such as respect for the others, for the employees, for the suppliers, for the competitors, for the collaborators, for the customers, and for the public have been and will always be the constant reference in their activity. Those are the same values that in the years led the founder Carlo Guglielmi to take care of multiple associations always with the intention/ aim that the entrepreneur’s world interests can and must be defended/protected/supported.
Firmamento Milano with the support of the prestigious architectural firms who work with them, is led by Carlo Guglielmi and who can count on the aid of his wife Giulia Savini and his friend Maurizio Magnoni in charge of the entire production and logistics, with whom he shared a long business experience.
