A lake below the Dolomites in Trentino, northern Italy
il mio lavoroThe story

Handmade in small batches, made for your day.

Every piece is designed by me and made in small runs. Proofs are provided where stated on the product page. Single letters are made directly from your choices, with names spelled exactly as you enter them.

I make things for the days that become memories. A christening, a wedding, a birthday that's really a milestone. These are the days people look back for, and I like making objects that make it easier to hold onto them.

I made things like this for years before I let myself call it a business. It sat in the background, fitted around work and family, always the thing I would get to properly one day.

Then I lost my dad, and I stopped waiting for one day.

Nothing prepares you for how fast the unexpected arrives, or how short the time turns out to be. Sempre Studio exists because of him, and it carries his name for a reason.

Larissa, founder

il nomeWhere the name came from

A name from home.

In Italian, sempre means always. Per sempre is forever.

A fitting name for a studio devoted to keepsakes made to last, and the right one for a studio built in my dad's memory. It is a nod to my roots in Trentino, in northern Italy, and to him.

It is why the colours are named in Italian, and why the small phrases scattered through this site are in his language rather than mine.

Made to orderSmall runs only

Nothing sits in a warehouse. Your piece is made when you order it, so small batches stay small and details stay exact.

Honest adviceSometimes "no"

If a piece isn't right for your day, I'll say so, rather than make something that won't be kept.
