"1735 - The history of the Ginori Manufactory began in Doccia, just a stone's throw away from Florence, Italy. Inspired by his passion for white gold, Marquis Carlo Andrea Ginori started a porcelain factory which was destined to become a worldwide icon of style. At Doccia, Carlo Ginori takes the opportunity to give space to a creativity capable of synthesizing the elements of the ancient tradition with more modern influences. 1779 - In stately homes, palaces and courtyards, the precious porcelain of the Doccia Manufactory was synonymous with elegance and refinement. 1806 - The direction of the Manifattura passes to Leopoldo Carlo Ginori Lisci. The young heir immediately shows that he has a broad entrepreneurial vision and initiates a process of profound renewal. 1896 - The Manifattura expands and the Richard Ginori Ceramic Company is born. The tradition of master craftsmen meets new technologies and the creations are perfected thanks to the use of new patents. 1923-1933 - The great master Giò Ponti was made creative director and the Ginori Manufactory spread its new decorative solutions throughout Europe. Giovanni Gariboldi (1908-1971) ranks among the most influential figures in the history of Italian decorative arts. He began his career at the age of just 18 when in 1926 he joined Ginori as an apprentice model maker under the guidance of Gio Ponti. Years later amidst a changing, modern, post-war society, Gariboldi took helm of Ginori as Artistic Director. 1985 - The Manufactory was renewed by relying on the experience of the greatest Italian designers of the time: Franco Albini, Franca Helg, Antonio Piva, Sergio Asti, Achille Castiglioni, Gabriele Devecchi, Candido Fior, Gianfranco Frattini, Angelo Mangiarotti, Enzo Mari and Aldo Rossi. In 2013 Manifattura Ginori was acquired by Gucci, joining the Kering group and Alessandro Michele became its artistic director. His vision, passionately oriented to tell contemporary taste, gives birth to new collections that successfully reinvent the centuries-old craftsmanship treasured by the Manifattura over time. During this period, the brand strongly redefines its image, repositioning itself toward a more exclusive segment that leads it to embrace the new flagship store concept, with one in Florence and one in Milan. 2020 - The Manifattura is experiencing an irrepressible wave of renewal that involves it at all levels starting with its historic name: from the Manifattura Richard Ginori to Ginori 1735. This change is followed by a transition, from the world of high-quality porcelain tableware and housewares to the luxury and lifestyle sector." (Source: Ginori 1735)
