The Rik-Fer workshops began their activity, with very modest proportions, on June 10, 1968 , just when the first lukewarm interests in the art of wrought iron were beginning to manifest themselves . In these long years of work we have tried to show ourselves sensitive to the instances that were sprouting, creating thousands of new forms, stimulated by the demand for artifacts to be used in the renovation of buildings of all times and by the new trends in modern art . Today, the Rik-Fer workshops employ approximately 40 people in the historic headquarters in Villotta, operating on a surface area of ​​12,000 square meters; another 50 workers work in the company’s supply chain. The large machine park and the knowledge acquired allow the company to offer large-scale or small-batch production, both on standard and custom products.
