In our area there were formed "companies" made up of young, more experienced people, who together with their wives went abroad, for example to the United States, taking with them the molds to produce the plaster statues on site. A part of the group took care of the production, the more experienced then went to sell the finished product and the women managed the daily life. After 3-4 years of stay, when in their opinion what had been reached, they returned to Bagni di Lucca and dissolved the company. So our elders traveled all over the world from Canada to Latin America, to Russia to Poland. At a certain point in 1930 Giovacchino, satisfied with the wandering, decides to stop and found the Marchi company. After the Second World War with his four children he founded the company CAV.G MARCHI & FIGLI which specializes in the production of papier mache nativity figures from 3 to 30 centimeters. The work develops by selling the traditional hand-painted product all over the world. In the 1960s, due to the initial difficulty in finding skilled labor and the consequent high costs, it was decided to start the production of plastic nativity figures. The Marchi brothers on the wave of economic development founded ISAS where the production of angels, religious articles, trays, mirrors in plastic and polyurethane was carried out, with a continuous development and updating of production techniques and materials. With this type of production we get to our days. Today the EUROMARCHI company, a merger of the two companies ISAS and CAV.G MARCHI & FIGLI, produces crib figures in multiple materials and finishes, plastic and polyurethane mirrors, religious articles, angels, trying to safeguard traditional production; to all this we have added all the accessories necessary to make the crib creating a very wide range and recognized as such worldwide. All our models are made in wax by skilled sculptors and then the steel mold is made on them. Each product is hand painted. Today, following the request of tourists eager to buy the traditional product of Bagni di Lucca, a "HAPPY EVENT" store was born in Diecimo (Borgo a Mozzano) where you can find everything that is crib, gift and frames. Currently EUROMARCHI is managed by the Marchi cousins, who try to keep the tradition and production of the crib alive in our area. Copyright 2015. All rights reserved.
