HOW IT ALL BEGAN
Ul sciur de Milan el veva vist luntan....
The gentleman from Milan had seen far.
It was the year 1930, and the newly founded Manifattura Marelli of Cantù, was beginning to establish itself by offering more or less well-known manufactured goods, addressing itself more and more to Milanese customers and to the ladies scattered throughout Brianza. Those were the years marked by a strong development of all entrepreneurial sectors, but what is of most interest to the readers of this story, lies in the fact that, just whoever was beginning to realize that they felt the need to indulge in some purchase, as if there was a real need to include in their home, a product of art, in Cantù Lace to be well shown proudly to friends and family .....
Without knowing it, our parents already appreciated what was later called "investment or dowry." But let's come to us, also at that time there were important clients who held high positions in society or renowned businessmen who, today all this would make a laughing stock, but at that time, serving them was a prestige. One of these people was, eager to own for his daughter something beautiful, not too commercial, tasteful, something elegant, authentic we would say ... that was how, it all began ...
The lacemakers immediately set to work making different designs, each according to her own skill, taking up the designs that Mrs. Maria Marelli had scrupulously prepared for each of them. The work continued gradually, but there was time; the important thing was the end result.
All the linens were executed and viewed by the notary who exclaimed saying :" congratulations I did not expect them like this."
We had formed a friendship with the Milanese gentleman that, continued for more years, the most was done one thought!!! Actually still a few things had to be done, "a wedding ring holder" had to be added; so the most requested by the bride's friends and immediately the task of making a new and unprecedented product had to be fulfilled. We wanted to amaze again, within three days it was made... et voila, the game is done.
Mrs. Marelli, called "Persiglia" by all the lacemakers, thanked them all for the candor and enthusiasm reserved for the execution of the motifs in Cantù Lace. In the days that followed those products were shown off and viewed by the bride's mother's friends who, there commercially opened sales of Marelli-branded products.
Ul sciur de Milan el ga veva vist luntan..
The gentleman from Milan had seen far.
The story continues......
Mrs. Marelli's children chose to work in this family business according to their predispositions, viz:
- some had graduated and specialized in drawing designs
- there were those who were better suited to relationships with the female workers
- there were those who had created a network of agents and doc stores in Italy
- there were those who had developed sales abroad
were not easy choices, but collaboration allowed this ancient art to be handed down to the present day.
Several opportunities in southern Italy were made by word of mouth, and Messrs. Schirripa, Serafino, Cuzzocrea became Friends. Southern Italy is not as everyone describes it as a "pit of illegality," those who say this is because they do not know anything about the south where instead there are: beautiful places, excellent cuisine, culture to sell and many beautiful people.
Thanks to Cantù's business relations we have had the pleasure of relating to other cultures and understanding that :
- Muslim women have taste and are very accepting of advice. It is regrettable to inbroaden them because they trust us Westerners.
- Chinese Oriental women know and are very familiar with our handicrafts such as Tombolo.
- Russian women know how to value time, that is, how long it takes to finish various projects in Tombolo.
Trust and esteem at the basis of everything.
Marelli Pizzi's Pizzo di Cantù has a future because we hand down the culture and you customers or tourists buy it because it is a wonder of Italy and excellent investment.
Thank you very much for believing in Marelli Pizzi.
