A true work of art From Ortigia, Daniel Mauceri’s Pupi have reached numerous cities around the world, bringing prestigious craftsmanship from Sicily to Europe, America and Asia. In the laboratory in Ortigia, Syracuse, designer jewels such as necklaces, bracelets and sets are created thanks to refined metalworking starting from medieval and chivalric forms. Ancient techniques handed down over 200 years of history make the Sicilian Pupi no longer just legendary characters of the traditional theatre, but a true work of art. A Pupo can become a piece of furniture to be displayed and which the customer can personalize according to their tastes. The choices vary from the type of character, the facial features, the color of the clothes, the color of the metal (copper, brass or nickel silver) for the creation of the armour, the mirror-polished or burnished finish. An expert will guide you towards the right choice of the character that best responds to your desires . Here are some images of the construction of the Sicilian Pupi. Processing THE My journey begins at the pace of elegant ladies and glorious knights, along the grain of the wood and the smooth surfaces of the metals. After careful study, the raw material takes on increasingly defined shapes after hours of physical work during which the idea travels, vibrates and asserts itself in its splendor. In compliance with tradition, Orlando, Rinaldo, Bradamante and many others today have faces and armor that have been perfected over time and in technique, bringing details to the highest levels, as a workmanlike creation requires. The creation begins with modeling the face in clay and then, through some work phases, obtaining a paper mache mask to be placed on a wooden base. Once the pieces that make up the pine and beech framework have been cut out, they are sculpted and modeled. The metals used for armor are copper, brass and nickel silver. For each individual piece, a “template” is created, i.e. a shape traced on the metal. The cut piece is chiselled or embossed according to the techniques handed down by our ancestors. Once the armor is finished, the seamstress sews the clothes and at the same time all the parts that require pigment are painted. Making a whole Pupo can take up to two months. The Story of Rinaldo and his sword Frusberta Son of Duke Amone and Beatrice, daughter of Duke Namo. Rinaldo had killed the giant Atlas in a duel and by rights had taken possession of his sword Frusberta and his enchanted horse Bajardo. In France, tough battles were fought against the infidels with great success for the paladins of France. Rinaldo fought against the Saracens with such immense honor and valor that he attracted the attention of Charlemagne who wanted him at his side. With the arrival of the Beautiful Beatrice at the court of Paris, he went mad with love, but Rinaldo returned his great first love to Clarice. Rinaldo fought with the Paladins of France until the battle in which his cousin Orlando lost his life, For her valiant exploits she was offered the kingdom of Trabizond, which she refused, put on the robes of a friar and entered a convent where she remained until her death.
