Polvere di Tempo is a laboratory born in 1989, from my passion for craftsmanship , and in particular for the construction of ancient time meters .

At the beginning it wasn't easy because the topic I was dealing with was not the most usual, and it implied a long search, both through bibliography and through consultations with astrophile gnomonists. The first tools I produced were portable sundials, later I discovered the charm of hourglasses , and I began to produce them in different sizes and types.

Currently in my laboratory I make in addition to these tools, compasses , globes , maps and other similar objects.

Colorful Trastevere is a funky, bohemian area that clings to its centuries-old, working-class roots. It's known for traditional and innovative trattorias, craft beer pubs and artisan shops, as well as simple B&Bs and budget hotels. From the pre-dinner passeggiata (promenade) until late, a young crowd buzzes around Piazza di San Calisto and Piazza Santa Maria in Trastevere, the site of a gilded, mosaic-filled church.
