Description
Original design combined with the highest quality materials and craftsmanship give the synonym of Florence Art manufactory.
Tradition
Among the streets of Florence, you can breathe art, from S. Croce to Ponte Vecchio, and then again among sculptures, paintings, and furnishings of the Medici villas, an exceptional city, territory where artists and artisans have found their life force for centuries. Florence Art was born in 1950 from this tradition, the manual skills of Tuscan craftsmen, love for art and beauty, passion for classics and what made this territory great. It was established as a sculptural manufactory and has always been a production brand that researches new products, designs them, creates samples, hand-sculpts them entirely, pantographs them, and prepares them for decoration. All production is carried out entirely in Florentine style; each element is designed by one of our designers, making it unique.
Designing
Florence Art, with its in-house designers, sculptors, and carpenters, can execute any type of work, even outside the Florentine style, as evidenced by some projects made for luxury hotels. On every Florence Art item, modifications and adjustments can be made, as well as work to be modified by a carpenter entirely by hand. This way, the brand can furnish a bedroom, living room, bathroom, boudoir, according to your design.
Style
The Florentine style is identified by the way sculptures, finishes, and designs are executed, and these features are unique to a very small area, such as Florence. Every item made in the Florentine style has carved parts, but with a current, fresh, elegant taste; each part is well “notched,” meaning well-defined, harmonizing with a classic yet very youthful style. The lines of the items are simultaneously elegant and romantic. Silver, colored, and gold finishes make each line even more elegant and youthful.
Pattern and sculpture
Sculpture results from the increasingly difficult-to-preserve legacy of Florentine traditions, distinguished by grace, harmony, and serving as a highlight and identifier of the entire production line. As is the case in Florence, it cannot be confused with other geographical areas. Professional figures with great skills, design talent, and stylistic knowledge are required, such as a “sculptor,” who must create “models” of each item and then sculpt them.
The model is the part used to reproduce the sculpture with a pantograph, and to do this, it must first have a scaled drawing of the item, then be entirely hand-carved in wood. It is cut into pieces because the pantograph works on segments no wider than about 20 cm and about 190 cm long. For pantograph work, a “Pantograph” is needed, which copies the model into 16 or 24 pieces, followed by “carpenters,” but highly specialized, as they must know how to assemble the carved elements. Only these three professionals ensure that the production is more skilled and valuable.
Decoration
Decoration, always entirely handmade, becomes an even more skilled element in various finishes; those made in Florence are incomparable with those from any other geographical area:
“Gouache” decoration used throughout art history, from the Renaissance, which originated in Florence, to all other stylistic periods, applies to both gold leaf (e.g., Zecchino and Antique Patina) and genuine silver leaf finishes (Ghiaccio, Bianco, Consumato, Strappato), which could then be covered with Meccata (coated with a special, ancient color, still used, called Mecca, in finishes, Mecca, and MeccaAntica), to resemble gold when in the past, there was no money to buy real gold.
