Description

The result of the patient and rigorous work of a Florentine artisan, marbled paper is one of the main materials in our workshop. It allows us to create and shape a wide range of processes that start from the simple coating of everyday objects and result in the great manual skill necessary in the art of bookbinding. Technically, marbling consists of sprinkling different oil colors on a gelatinous bath that allows the colors to float to the surface. Subsequently, through the use of special tools (such as combs or sticks), the At this point a sheet is placed directly on the surface of the bathroom, thus allowing the colors to adhere to the paper. The sheet is lifted and hung to dry. For each series of sheets belonging to the same color combination, the entire procedure is repeated, thus making each piece unique. The singularity and unrepeatability of this paper are transferred to all the products that we handcrafted by combining the everyday and the useful with artistic elements such as, precisely, the marbled papers.
