| Professor Agostino Dessì
creates and produces, with his daughter Alice, his own hand crafted,
original, classical and fantastic masks in papier-maché,
leather, and ceramics, using 17th century art techniques. Agostino's
masks are hand painted in tempera, water colors and acrylics.
They are silver and gold leafed, and polished with a special French
lacquer. |

Agostino's unique creations
include:
a) masks for the Italian theatre (commedia dell' arte and cinema);
b) masks for the Carnival of Venice;
c) masks for pantomimes, collections, and furnishings;
