Spilimbergo and Aperol Spritzers



My last trip to Europe(my first also) saw us make a beeline for the north and visit the beautiful town of Spilimbergo. It was a great chance to visit the Scuola Mosaicisti Del Friuli and catch up with my friend Carolina Zanelli. Here is a photo of Carolina in her studio holding one of her favourite works in stone and also one of her holding her new product "Zanoleum"(Pat. Pending).
Carolina is a walking encyclopedia on her area and we visited the ancient town of Acquilea where the mosaics appear like mushrooms. They are literally everywhere. In Spilimbergo streets you will see the old Facchina style alongside great modern installations from the school.
