Metal hardware developer · Portfolio
From idea,
to object,
to production.
I'm Bernardo Lascialfari, a sculptor by training and a metal hardware developer. Since 2022 I have developed accessories and metal components for luxury leather goods — today at Prada, previously at Chloé and Vispel.

Career
From sculpture to product development.
With a degree in Sculpture from the Accademia di Belle Arti di Firenze, I bring a feeling for volume and material to the design of metal accessories.
From workshop prototyping at Vispel to collection and runway development at Chloé, and technical development at Prada: every role has taken me from idea to production.

Working alongside Design, Product and Pattern-making teams.
Modelling
Volumes and surfaces modelled in 3D and by hand.
Prototype

Production
Industrialisation, tooling launch and quality control.
Selected work
Objects, hardware, details.
“Every component carries the same attention as a sculpture: proportion first, then the mechanics that let it exist in production.”
