“Some are faithful copies, others I have colored, rearranged according to my creativity. I travel from city to city and suggest my business. In five years I have made magnets from 150 towns in Piedmont and northern Italy and I would suggest them above all from small towns and tell stories.”
Magnets have also arrived in Nice and Canelli
Rinaldo also has dinner at Sacra de Saint-Michel, where it makes its magnet known to tourists from all over the world, even if the epidemic stops it for a while.
His works can be found in the libraries of museums such as the Basilica of Superga, the Order of Mauritius in Turin with the Stupinigi Hunting Lodge, the Ranverso Precettoria and the Staffarda Abbey, the Fossil Museum of Asti and Casa Museo by Pellizza da Volpedo.
