About Us / Foundation Section
Alessandro and Alma Fiorentino Foundation
The Alessandro and Alma Fiorentino Foundation ETS was established in 2015 with a clear mission: to safeguard the memory of Sorrento wood inlay and ensure its continuity in the present. It takes its name from its founding promoters, Alessandro Fiorentino and Alma Alviani Fiorentino, who carried forward the Sorrento inlay tradition for decades and chose to entrust this mission to a dedicated institution, able to operate over the long term with a cultural and social vocation.
