Graziella Laffi (1923-2009)
Graziella Laffi was born in Florence, Italy but lived and worked in Peru and drew much inspiration from the country’s rich architectural past. She made silver hollowwares and jewellery in both modern and pre-Columbian designs. Her works span from the early 1950s to early 1970s.
