Without oxygen, the flame goes out. It's physical or, if you want, it's magic. The marble collection is made by iFrioli marble workers from the San Lorenzo / Verano district in Rome. These marble works have a history that dates back to 183, the year in which Leopolo Frioli from Emilia decided to transfer his experience as an entrepreneur and artisan in the capital. Today, after five generations, the goal is to continue this ancient profession whilst keeping alive the tradition.
