ABOUT
Porro Goldsmith Workshop, originally established in the Brera district, is now in its third generation after nearly a century of dedicated craftsmanship. Founded by Luigi Porro, the grandfather, the workshop garnered national recognition, even participating in the Triennale with exceptional and pioneering jewelry pieces. In the postwar era, Luigi’s son, Mario, joined the workshop, contributing to its growth and evolution. Over the years, the workshop has continued to develop and thrive. Currently managed by his granddaughters, it has received prestigious awards, including the titles of “Impresa storica” (Historical Enterprise) and “Bottega storica di Milano” (Historical Workshop of Milan).
