Historical notes and mobile curiosities

This corner unit fully represents the 18th century Venetian Baroque style from which it is inspired. It derives from the classic Venetian style but is enriched by exuberant and luxuriant ornaments. Many customers declare themselves satisfied with this piece of furniture for its usefulness and for the precious enrichment that can be obtained by placing it in any corner of the room. This splendid precious corner, inlaid in rare essences such as Ferrarese walnut briar and rosewood, was commissioned to us by one of our customers who, after visiting the Grimani palace, was dazzled by the piece of furniture and wanted to commission a reproduction faithful to the original. Through photographs and careful planning of hand-drawn drawings of the artifact, we were able to recreate it with special hand-drawn shapes on plywood. The passion and love for our work creates luxury furnishings that are unique in their shape and inlay.
