Since 1958 the Guerra family has been creating exquisite objects fashioned from horn, whose sumptuous feel and timeless beauty is revered throughout the world. This is the story of a family of true artisans who are passionate about their craft. Fifty years ago, Mario Guerra and his wife Ebe set up their business in the town of Recanati, today in this beautiful setting surrounded by the most fertile land and overlooking the sea, business is thriving. It is important to note that this is not a production line, but rather like an artists studio, albeit on a grand scale. The wonderful quality of life built up by this family is reflected in every piece created.
The collection is extensive including everything from caviar bowls, utensils, vases, trinket boxes to tables, armchairs, bookcases and lamps. To compliment the horn only the finest materials are chosen, whether it is ebony, silver, or leather; everything is always sourced from companies with like minded craftsmen, who are also the best in their fields. On a final note, horn is a completely natural product; it comes from cattle, and is in no way endangered. The process of creating Arca objects is not toxic; making each piece completely environmentally friendly, an added dimension to luxury that is rare to find in these modern times.
