Designed, built and finished inside the workshop, in Tavarnelle Val di Pesa.

The piece

In an attic there is no such thing as a catalog wardrobe: the roof comes down, and every door is a different height from the one before. This one is built to the drawing of the roof slope — the tall doors where the ridge allows it, the drawers and low compartments where the pitch reaches the floor, and the side cut to the exact angle of that roof.

The work begins with the survey, not with the piece: the real pitch is measured, which is never the one on the plan, and the run of the beams is checked. From that comes a dimensioned drawing, and only then is anything cut. It is the piece where the quotation cannot come before the measurements, and it is why the company asks you to call first.

How it is made

The finish is the craft: lacquer and gold leaf are the two steps almost everyone subcontracts, and here they stay in house.

The workshop

L'ARTES

An art furniture workshop in Sambuca, founded in Firenze, in San Frediano, in 1968 by two young artisans trained by the masters of woodcarving. The whole cycle stays inside: the drawing, the unfinished piece, the lacquering, the decoration and the hand gilding. Three lines — Classico, Contemporary and Antica Firenze — and every piece built to the measurements of whoever orders it.
