I n 1920, the Municipality of Bassano commissioned to him the statue La Musa Scrivente dedicated to the writer Giovanni Vaccari.  In Milan, he decided to try producing porcelain.  Like other artists of the time (Arturo Martini,  Bortolo Sacchi, Guido Cacciapuoti), Fabris worked on artist’s multiples, limited series of small sculptures made by artists in collaboration with artisanal laboratories.
