About Massimo Caiafa
Massimo Caiafa, owner of the eponymous Galerie Caiafa Arte di Massimo Caiafa, was born into a family with a connection to the arts stretching back to the 1600s. After studying and gaining experience in his family’s atelier he decided to start something of his own. He wanted to work creatively while remaining true to tradition. This translated into his first atelier in Naples, where he started a collection of eclectic art and design objects, including lighting, furniture, ceramics and crystals, all personally selected after careful research.
