WOOD CRAFTING

The Saw and the Lathe

We only use top quality timber , in poplar, lime, wenge ', ebony or tulipwood, and we only work with traditional methods for the construction of our products: we know that excellence and prestige take life from the raw materials and the wisdom of the hands that work them.

The Colouring

The wood is aged with simple but ingenious methods handed down for generations, and then it is coloured and polished with traditional techniques:

° Enclosure: Small holes to imitate the work of woodworms, small strokes to imitate accidents and rounded corners to imitate the daily use consumption. All these processes give the objects a fantastic antique effect, the lived taste that makes them alive.

° Wood colouring : the initial one is made with natural water-based impregnating agents and the final polishing is made of shellac; shellac is a natural product that for hundreds years has been used to polish and protect the wooden furniture and musical instruments. We still use it to polish using the same techniques and secrets learned from our grandparents and great-grandparents.

The Scroll Saw

The scroll saw, or electric tunnel, is a very fine saw, a new generation of the ancient manual one. With it we fretwork, cut low thickness wood, and thanks to his small dimensions we can create curves, angles and curls that embellish the silhouette of our products, always different in small details. Using it we create Clocks and Pendulums, Decorative Theatres and Carillon Theatres.

For cutting thicker wood we use the band saw and the electric wrapping machine, for example to make caskets and large music boxes, and their frames.

The Lathe

The lathe is a machine that allows us, thanks to the use of special chisels, to create objects with a round, convex or elliptical shape. Bacause of the totally manual processing, the products are always unique, different one from the other.

Even the wood is always different: Teak, Ornello, Maple, Tuscan Olive, Tulipier, Beech, Wenge, Cherry, Cypress, Tuya, Bubinga, Zebrano, Padouk, each with its colors, its veins and clearly visible shades.

The objects are created from pieces of wood of a single essence, or from pieces assembled by hand from different woods and decorated with the inlay technique . Compositions with different geometrical designs, each one outcome of the typically artisan flair.

With the lathe we create spinning tops , lucky eggs , fountain pens and mechanical pencils .
