HISTORY

day after day, between tradition and innovation
1897
Guido Confalonieri opens a typography in Chiavenna, a little village surrounded by the Alps not far from the Swiss border. Elegant and unspoiled nature blends with art and culture, always rich with stimulants in the areas close to the border.
1900
Using the energy produced by the River Mera, Guido Confalonieri diversifies his business activities and starts producing chalk sticks commonly used in schools, tailor workshops, and in pool. He also produced pen ink.
