GUIDO FIORENTINI
(Novara 1909-Imperia 1993), trasferitosi a Milano con la sua famiglia, decise di intraprendere la carriera di argentiere e secondo le regole del tempo fece il suo apprendistato nelle botteghe dei più famosi artigiani. La sua prima bottega si trovava in un vecchio palazzo di Viale Bligny a Milano. Le sue opere furono in vendita nelle grandi goiellerie dell'epoca, sia in Italia che all'estero. Le stesse gioiellerie gli commissionarono inoltre l'esecuzione di pezzi speciali di grande importanza. Questa grande anfora fu creata su commissione di Calderoni, destinata ad un importante Capo di Stato dell'epoca.
