In typography the grille is instead the press that compresses the flan against the composition to obtain the impression. The surname Calandrelli, also present in the Calandrella variant in Rome and in the Benevento area, could in this sense derive from a nickname attributed to the progenitor on the basis of his working activity (textile worker or printer) or on the basis of a particular physical or characteristic characteristic (calandrella because small as the bird of the same name, or because it is an excellent imitator of his verse), the latter most plausible hypothesis for the invention occurred in modern times of the grille. Among the various Calandrellis we identify distinguished important figures in the history of our country, such as Professor Ignazio Calandrelli, scientist and astronomer in the 19th century Naples, and the Abbot Giuseppe Calandrelli (Zagarolo, Rome, 22/5/1749 - Rome, 12/25/1827), astronomer and learned scientist.
