He achieved much success with his work, his ceramics being awarded prizes at many of the prestigious exhibitions of the day both in Italy and abroad. He won prizes as far afield as Brussels, St Petersburg and America.As a painter he also exhibited at the Venice Biennale for more than 30 years, from 1901 to 1936.
