Born in 2000 in Sarzana, a small town in Liguria, Lorenzo’s passion for music, and later for lutherie, began early.
He played the transverse flute for 13 years, immersing himself in a musical environment from a young age.
While attending the music high school in La Spezia, he was first introduced to the art of lutherie. Captivated by the craft, he enrolled at the Civic School of Lutherie in Milan under the guidance of Maestro Pietro Forlani. There, he received hands-on training and deepened his understanding of the field.
Guided by renowned teachers such as M° Roberto De Miranda, M° Silvia Zanchi, M° Ivan Bruna, and M° Bob Van de Kerckhove, Lorenzo graduated in 2023.
He completed an internship the following year with M° Marco Gilioli, where he further refined his skills in instrument construction and precision craftsmanship.
Since 2024, he has been building classical guitars in his workshop in Fosdinovo, a picturesque village in Lunigiana. Inspired by the great masters, especially Antonio de Torres, his guitars follow traditional methods, offering a soft, well-balanced tone with excellent playability and projection.
