Augusto Chini

He was born in Borgo San Lorenzo in 1874 and died there in 1902. The brother of Chino, he joined the members of the Ceramic Arts soon after the founding of the factory. His role in the manufacture was that of a decorator. Some sketches for plates were also attributable to him, where the resumption of traditional ornamental designs, together with an adherence to Art Nouveau taste of French-Belgian origin, is evident.
