combined with the highest quality raw 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

and paintings and furnishings of the Medici villas, a unique city, a territory where artists and

craftsmen have found their life force for centuries. Florence Art was born in 1950

from this tradition, the manual skills of Tuscan artisans, love for art and beauty, and passion for

classicism and what made this territory great. It was established as a sculptural manufactory and has always been a manufacturing brand that explores new products, designs them, creates samples, sculpting them

entirely by hand, pantographing them, and preparing them for decoration. All production is carried out entirely in

"Florentine style," with each element designed by one of our designers, making it

unique.

Design

Florence Art, with its internal designers, sculptors, and carpenters, can execute any

type of work, even outside the Florentine style, as evidenced by some projects completed for luxury hotels.

On every Florence Art piece, modifications and adjustments can be made, as well as

custom work by carpenters entirely by hand. This way, the brand can furnish a bedroom, living room, bathroom, boutique, according to your design.

Style

The Florentine style is characterized by the way sculptures, finishes, and product 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 “toothed,” 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 characteristic of Florence, it cannot be confused with other geographical areas. Professional figures with high skills and stylistic knowledge are required, such as a “sculptor,” who must create “models” of each item and then sculpt them.

A model is the part used to reproduce the sculpture with a pantograph, and to create it first, an article drawing at scale is needed, then it is entirely hand-sculpted 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 to replicate the model in 16 or 24 pieces, followed by highly specialized “carpenters” who know how to assemble the sculpted 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 real silver leaf finishes (Ghiaccio, Bianco, Consumato, Strappato), which could then be covered with Meccata (a special ancient color, still used, called Mekka, in finishes, Mekka, and MeccaAntica), to resemble gold when in the past, there was no money to buy real gold.
