Venice Console

The Briccole are the unquestioned main characters of Venice – leading boats and marking the Lagoon low tide. On average the posts in the lagoon last for 10 to 20 years, then corroded by the tides, worn and damaged, they have to be replaced. Made unique pieces by the industriousness of shipworms, small mollusks, Briccole are transformed into exclusive pieces of furniture able to convey a special emotion. These truly one of a kind creations are rich with history, character and the enduring appreciation of the art of design. The posts and the slabs are individually treated through an artisan processing, which ensures that the grooves carved by the shipworms are carefully cleaned, in order to preserve the natural imperfections on the surface. Technology and superior carpenters’ craftsmanship are able to transform the raw posts, marked by the weather and worn out during time, into unique and inimitable products.
