GIUSEPPE ARMANI BIO
Giuseppe Armani was born in Calci, Italy, in 1935. From the
moment young 'Bebe' could pick up a pencil, he drew. He drew everything he saw.
He drew everyone he knew. He drew all day long. Armani's parents were amazed at
Giuseppe's prodigious output and they recognized that their little boy's
sketches were more than just the whimsical drawings of most children. Uncanny
realism and attention to detail revealed Giuseppe's true talent. He had The
Gift. Giuseppe's teachers decided that Armani should attend the Academy of Fine
Arts in Florence. Unfortunately, as the arrangements were being made, his
father died unexpectedly. The family needed Giuseppe now. Art school was
forgotten. But the Art was not. Giuseppe Armani's natural talent was finally
recognized when a local priest organized an exhibition of young artists;
Giuseppe entered a sculpture of a classically inspired male torso. The work was
greatly admired for its extraordinary anatomical precision. When the torso was
taken to the Art Gallery in Pisa -- located across the street from the famous
Leaning Tower -- Giuseppe Armani's talent was rewarded with the offer of a
permanent job there. In Pisa, Armani's dream of studying art was finally
realized. He immersed himself in the great masterpieces of the Renaissance that
he had only read about in books. He travelled to Siena and Florence and began
to hone his personal style; Giuseppe drew heavily on the style of 16th Century
Florentine Renaissance. Sculpture, Armani realized, allowed him to work in
three dimensions. He infused life, character and even soul into his works.
Giuseppe experimented in wood, clay, alabaster and marble and his reputation
grew with each breathtaking creation. Art admirers soon started flocking to the
gallery to see Armani's latest efforts. In 1975, the Florence Sculture d'Arte,
recognizing Armani's genius, offered him the opportunity to work exclusively
for them. He would be encouraged to give free rein to his artistic muse.
Giuseppe Armani accepted. For more than 20 years Armani has created
masterpieces ranging from traditional Capodimonte style to more daring,
contemporary, sometimes whimsical sculptures. Always, Giuseppe infused his
figurines with breathtaking realism -- with a spark of life. This continues to
amaze even his many admirers the world over. Giuseppe Armani describes his
credo this way: "Although I consider myself a direct descendant of the
Renaissance heritage, I believe that an artist has to follow his own evolution
and not solely be a ruminant of the past, as glorious as it may have been. An
artist conducts a search that may lead him far out in exploring new areas of
interest. I continually search to discover new and better means of expression.
May be returned within 14 days of receipt if drastically
misrepresented and only after an email request to me for a return

Ebay notes on import/customs duties,
& taxes:
Shipping charges are calculated by
location through the shipping calculator for each item. I offer discounts
for multiple orders by combining charges depending on weight. I do charge a
handling fee on the calculated shipping to cover my costs of packaging materials,
but I believe them fair compared to other fees I have seen on eBay and the
comments from some of my repeat customers are proof. Please e-mail me for
details and charges after you have finished shopping. Even if an invoice was
generated I can always re-issue a corrected one. Most expensive jewelry is
shipped Priority mail unless you want it faster. Most other items are shipped
USPS first class mail unless the
weight exceeds 13 ounces, then it goes Priority. International orders can go first class
parcel if you don’t mind the wait or I can send them Priority but for heavy,
larger items it can be expensive! Depending on the weight of the pieces,
many can be combined for the same rate. Books, CD's, etc. are usually sent
media for domestic orders and again many items can usually be included in 1
order for a combined shipping discount, especially CD's, unless you want it
faster or if you live outside the United States. It takes 2-9 days for domestic
media mail. Combined orders of printed (or recorded) material and gifts or
jewelry cannot be sent media mail! For payment I accept PayPal. Shipment
