Description

INGA is an abbreviation of “Industria Nazionale Gessi e Affini” and was founded in the early 1950s by the Sgambaro family.

It was one of four Italian manufacturers producing chalk for school blackboards, an essential aid in education and entertainment for thousands of children and young people at the time. In addition to chalk for blackboards, INGA produced “affini,” which are other chalk products such as stuccoes, packaged and sold in powder or paste form. In the 1960s and 1970s, INGA also added interior decorative elements to its chalk production. This way, INGA became one of the main producers of original decorative stuccoes, such as rosettes, frames, and wall and ceiling cornices. These were very fashionable at the time, ordered and installed in all homes as decorative elements.

Over the years, INGA gradually moved away from mass production to focus solely on creating artistic objects that reflect a passion for beauty, culture, and elegance. INGA transformed into a true art laboratory, where unique, refined, and personalized plaster pieces are created for clients worldwide.

Additional information Roman art. The original of this bust was found in Otricola (Umbria) at the end of the 18th century. The work, kept in the Vatican Museums, depicts Jupiter, a Roman deity whose symbols are lightning and thunder. The thick hair, thin beard and prominent frontal bone suggest that the work was inspired by a depiction of the Greek god Zeus.
