The Basilica thus becomes the heart of the work of the Sopranas who dedicate their passion and energy to it. In 1973 Adolfo took over from the old Marangoni jewelry shop, located under the vaults of the Palladian Basilica since 1770, and since then the company has moved under the "Palladian vaults" and has continued to invest in the new shop, both from an infrastructural point of view. Thus began the adventure of the historic jewelery, a path that has gone through more than half a century by joining people and the life of this city in all its events, private or public.
Only ten years later Adolfo Soprana goes down to Vicenza and opens a watch and optical jewelery shop in Piazza dei Signori at number 53. In 1946 three brothers Adolfo, Roberto and Edoardo opened their first jewelery-watchmaking and opticians in Valdagno in Corso Italia 14. It is post-war Italy that instead marks the beginning of his children's business. In 1940 he established his business in Valdagno, an area projected towards the future thanks to the Marzotto industries. Returning to Italy, in the 1930s he built the minute hand for the clock of the bell tower of San Giovanni Ilarione. At the suggestion of his father he emigrated to Buenos Aires, where he made his fortune thanks also to his ability to model the thin glasses of watches using photographic plates. It all began on 10 October 1910 when Alfredo Giovanni Soprana learned the art of watchmaking from the master Santini of Varese.
