Fodor's Review:
Valese Fonditore has been creating works in brass, bronze, copper, and pewter since 1913. The various metals are cast into artistic handles, menorahs, Carnevale masks, and real gondola decorations (which make great paperweights, bookends, or shelf pieces). The coups de grâce are the brass chandeliers, exactly like those that hang in the Oval Office in the White House. The foundry is open every day, but things only get interesting when they pour. Call to arrange a visit.
