WOOD CRAFTING

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.
