ALEX GRAZZINI, President
From the hills of Firenze, Alex Grazzini first observed his father, notable master carver Giovanni Grazzini, carve the minutest details of rococo, english and french period furniture. the younger Grazzini would carve the intricate eyes and beaks of wooden birds for his father to critique. Not surprising that the young Grazzini would immerse himself in the artisan craft to emerge as a designer, master craftsman, and fabricator of seductive one-of-a-kind pieces some 25 years later. Today, Grazzini Furniture is the go to fabricator for creating custom designs merging true to form functionality with stylish and polished aesthetics for modern lifestyles.
