Understanding steel, shaping ideas<\/h1>\n

A polished or satin surface, body thickness, the meeting of base and sides, the shape of a handle: a utensil\u2019s character lies in its details. Serafino Zani\u2019s history is built on knowledge of steelworking and dialogue between designers and those who understand the material.<\/p>\n

In 1980, US patent US4204607A<\/a>, naming Tarcisio Zani as inventor, was published for a cooking-vessel base. It is a milestone in the company\u2019s research history. Each current collection nevertheless has its own construction: steel, multilayer structures and coatings are described in the relevant specifications, without assigning one process or production origin to every product.<\/p>\n
