Exclusive oak wood from the lagoons in and around Venice. The numerous wooden piles protruding from the water, known as «Briccole,» serve for navigation or as boat moorings. These piles must be renewed every 5 to 10 years due to corrosion. The oak wood, marked by seawater, shells, and shipworms, possesses the color of antique oak and exhibits a unique kind of patina. The fact that each of the approximately 10-meter-long piles erodes in different ways makes each section unique. Whether as solid wood or veneer, this material, with its tactile and aesthetic qualities, is an extraordinary choice for unique surfaces and accents.
