Arte dei Maestri di Pietra e Legname

The Arte dei Maestri di Pietra e Legname was one of the Guilds of Florence that represented the Master stonemasons, woodcarvers, and sculptors. It was founded before 1236, and it came to absorb multiple building crafts in the Florence area. It was one of the five Arti Maggiori ("middle trades")

Contents

It was listed as Muratori e Scarpellini (builders and stonemasons) in a 1236 list of the guilds, and listed fifth in precedence among the minor guilds although it was raised to fourth in 1280, when the tanners and curriers were relegated.
