"Sorrentino"
is a
surname frequently found among the families of craftsmen workěng inlaid
marble and semi-precious stones during the XIX century in Naples
under the direction of masters Gasparo Dominici, Ghinghi and
Giovanni Mugnai. Besides cameos, theěr work also included the making of
boxes, small tables, cases, altars and so on.
Many of these works can be
found in the Royal Palaces of Naples, Portici and Caserta.
The
firm of Maestranze Napoletane headed by Raffaele Sorrentino has a double aim:
to rediscover the traditions
of working marble and semi-precious stones and to continue this
tradition today by scrupulously using old manufacturing techniques.
