In 1931 grandfather Antonio made his first copper pan; Ruffoni Company was born in 1962 of the love towards copper of its founder Fremide (Antonio’s son). Located in Omegna, the ancient town of Vaemenia, at the foot of the alps, Omegna, on the shore of the quiet Orta lake, has been for ages the land of the coppersmiths.

“... this is the reason why the leprechauns that live in the nearby Macugnaga and Valsesia come to Omegna to have the coppersmiths make their precious pots...”

The manufacture of copper is a real passion for Ruffoni Company. Its primary aim is the achievement of very high quality standards. It is its duty to comply with all the world’s FDA lead and cadmium regulations, and they have always strictly done so. The high regard that each member of the Ruffoni team holds for his job calls for meticulousness, skill, and the use of recyclable materials for the products and for packaging. To this aim, whenever possible we opt to employ exacting manual techniques preferable to more inexpensive chemical and mechanical manufacturing procedures.
