It
can be said that the history of this shop in Savona now spans three
generations, having begun in 1926 when Mr Risso of Genova, a forerunner in the
cultivation of flowers and ornamental plants, moved to the Savona hinterland
and his daughter Piera, thirty years later, opened and successfully developed a
shop specialising in flower arrangements in Savona, the second largest city in
Liguria.
Their
roots, passion and study are at the heart of the vision of these craftsmen, who
have graduated in Plant Architecture in Italy, Spain and Switzerland, a
training course, particularly the Swiss school, which 'has given us, in
addition to artistic knowledge, a mastery of technique that allows us to add
innovative designs and special shapes to traditional decorative compositions'.
Manual
skills in the delicate handling of flowers, expertise in making compositions
and the ability to manipulate materials such as iron, wood, glass and various
agglomerates are the professional ingredients that make the difference and turn
flower arrangements, from decorations to bouquets to plant sculptures, into
true works of art.
In
the wake of the culture and experience gained with decorations, Fiorista Piera
has developed a fine line of costume jewellery with floral-themed necklaces,
bracelets, earrings, rings and brooches.
