PACE DI VALENTINO START

Pace di Valentino (also known as “Pacino”; ”Pacino Orafo”)^[1] was a Sienese goldsmith active from 1257-1296.^[2] Though working chiefly in Siena he also was established for a time in Pistoia.^[1]

The first documented reference to Pace di Valentino is for two seals made in 1257.^[3] Other works attributed to him include the chalice of Sant’Atto made c.1270,^[4] as well as a large golden chalice (“calicem magnum di auro”) weighing about 11 pounds and paten made about 1270-1271, both of which are now lost.^[1] Other extant documents indicate the details of his purchases of gold, silver, pearls, beads, and precious stones for use in his work, as well as details of payments for works commissioned.^[3]

Some art historians suggest that he is the creator also of the reliquary of San Galgano's head although this is disputed by others.^[3]

He was the first Sienese goldsmith to work for the papal court (under popes Nicholas III, Martin IV, Honorius IV, and Boniface VIII)^[3] and influenced other goldsmiths, including Guccio di Mannaia.^[5]
