works

The results of a professional life dedicated

to the mosaic come from the skill, patience, technical ability that can be ensured by a strong value only: the passion for the art,

for the beauty, for one’s own work.

The style-based techniques

Roman

This is a mosaic made in marble with different sized quadrangular tesseras. The piece of stones are positioned

one next to the other keeping a precise distance, specially studied to give more result to the spacing grid.

Byzantine

This is a further development of the Roman technique. The glass stuff and gold made tesseras have a smaller

and regular shape.

Classic or Venetian technique

This is still today the most used technique. It allows to create any kind of classic works with the mosaic.

The tesseras are either in marble or enamel-coated in different dimensions, with regular size and spacing

between them.

In this case it is very important the tesseras positioning which, following the design, gives the shape to the images.

Modern technique

Following this technique, the mosaicist’s creativity has a free play:

different kind of materials (marble, enamels, gold, natural materials…) and binders (according to the application technique needs) can be combined together, in the respect of all the above mentioned techniques rules.
