“When, in 1982, Fred Gandolfi decided to close the family business, photographer Ken Griffiths thought the Peckham workshop and its unique contents should be recorded for posterity.

Joined by brother David and supported by a passionate team of film makers and photographers, Ken’s project mushroomed.

After shooting documentary footage of the business in its last days, Ken followed the brothers into their retirement, the film covers a period of 20 years.

There is an underlying theme, the story is not just about Fred and Arthur moving into a well-earned retirement, the closure of the business also epitomises the end of many other small craft industries in the latter days of the 20th century.

The Griffiths film lovingly captures the beauty of the Gandolfi’s craft, the legacy of their family and the last years of their remarkable lives.”
