Brandimarte Sterling Silver (925) Hammered Water Pitcher - Italian

7” tall, 4” wide See information from their website below. From my personal collection (actually Mom’s collection) so this item is guaranteed vintage. The label is from a jewelry store in Padua, Italy.

Brandimarte, founded in 1955, is a traditional Florentine history, created by Brandimarte Guscelli.

Brandimarte has employed workers, created training to learn how to manage the silver, he gave work to prisoners, and while he was following the enlightened artisan flair of its founder,he adopted two important innovative revolutions in the field of silverware; the first one was a technical nature which involved "hammering" the metal, as he had seen the gypsies with copper and the second was proposing the silver items in everyday home, using them commonly, breaking the customary silver product as a piece of luxury to show.

The Brandimarte's silvers are forged by hand for over 100 employees and by the sudden death of the founder, in 1994, the company has been followed by the sons Stefano and Giada Guscelli.

Every silver piece is handcrafted in Florence.
