Prime numbers have fascinated people for centuries. Infinite, perfect, mystical. They remain true only to one and themselves. Euclid of Alexandria, in 1550 B.C., pioneered the study of these enigmatic figures<\/a><\/span><\/strong> in Egypt with written evidence in the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus<\/a><\/span><\/strong>. More than just maths, prime numbers endlessly unveil many of the world\u2019s most beautiful mysteries. Nature\u2019s graceful yet intricate code offers a limitless bounty of primes, creating never-ending foundations and unbounded patterns. Letizia Benini Galeffi<\/a><\/span><\/strong>, heir to the famous Tuscan pharmacy based in Montevarchi, Antica Farmacia Galeffi<\/a><\/span><\/strong>, has always been prime obsessed. Fascinated by the union between la matematica<\/em> (mathematics) and la bellezza <\/em>(beauty), her Tuscan-based skincare line<\/strong>, i <\/span><\/strong><\/a>Numeri Primi<\/a><\/span><\/strong>,<\/strong><\/a> launched in 2013. Her magical concoctions blend the beauty of serendipitous biological occurrences with solid and steadfast mathematical research, to form the purist and most innovative formulas for the body<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThe uniqueness of i Numeri Primi comes from the combination of mathematics, a great passion of mine, with nature and beauty<\/strong>,\u201d <\/em>Letizia tells us. \u201c I have always seen a spontaneous harmony in prime numbers and in nature, it is no secret that there is a very precise sequence of numbers found in flowers and plants. The most famous example is perhaps that of sunflower seeds, whose spiral follows the Fibonacci sequence. And then daisies, broccoli, cauliflowers…Pythagoras are essentially the mathematics of nature!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n To indulge in the splendour of Letizia\u2019s handcrafted line of primary elements, one must remember the Galeffi family and their own fascination, throughout the generations<\/strong>, for developing the purest of potions to aid the physique. The family pharmacy opened in 1763 in Montevarchi<\/a><\/span><\/strong>, just outside of Arezzo and a century later, the now famous fizzy lemon digestive, Effervescente Galeffi<\/a><\/span><\/strong>, was created. The Galeffi tonic remains a cherished effervescent Italian remedy for tummy troubles even today, found in many an alimentari <\/em>(food shop) throughout the peninsula.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFrom ancient pharmacy to contemporary wellness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
