Brandimarte Wine Collection Firenze

Brandimarte, the founder.
His close friends just called him Brandi. As an artist he had no need for a family name.
His was GUSCELLI, but it is used only for taxes and registries. Nothing more.
A master artisan and a talented silversmith, he always sought inspiration from Nature. Many rural themes appear in the finely embossed and chased decorations on the plates, glasses and bowls of silver that made him famous around the world. BRANDIMARTE left an inheritance of wisdom, sagacity and the extraordinary philosophy of the country tradition.
 Today his son and daughter continue: Stefano and Giada.
 Stefano, the designer of the company, carries on in the spirit of his father, “...living the experience of silver, cooking in silver, enjoying the fragrance of a fine wine in a silver goblet can become a unique experience that should not be missed...”
Giada, who began to work in sales when she was very young, acquired her father’s experience and expertise about the quality of the metal.
BRANDIMARTE silver exalts every moment of the day, abolishing the inhibition to use these artefacts and freeing the emotions that this noble metal inspires.
Silver for the table that finds its way into the homes of those who love beautiful objects, not only to delight the eyes but to satisfy another sense that BRANDIMARTE believes the consumer society has ignored for too long: the sense of touch.
The excellent craftsmanship of BRANDIMARTE silver has made it one of the most important brands in Italy, appreciated around the world.


The origin of this collection:the real foundation of it all is that daily gesture, the gesture that unites the elegance of quenching thirst, accompanying food, syncopating a lazy conversation, overflowing with sensuality,
revealing the hands, opening the lips, an elegantly veiled erotism...grasp that goblet!
Pay it the attention it deserves, return that kiss...
this is the idea for a collection of goblets that must stimulate emotion from the first contact with the throbbing surface, a prelude to the cool touch on the lips, and transmit a sensation of subtle fleshiness.
Before the forms, the oxygenation volume ratios and every other necessary technical requirement, before the study of numerous themes with the precious contributions of professional wine experts,
before everything else, I wanted to capture that gesture without depriving it of its intimate energy, that is the origin: the sweet feeling of a cool breeze, tasting a wine to enjoy the goblet as well...and so, inspired by my desire,
I used my hands to fashion a violin for the music of Bacchus and the lips of Aphrodite...
