Papier mache is a crafting technique that involves using a paste made from paper and adhesive to create objects. The paste is applied to a mold or armature, and then layers of paper or other materials are added until the desired shape is formed. Once the object has dried and hardened, it can be painted, decorated, or otherwise finished.

Yes, all of our products are made in our Florentine workshops using traditional techniques and materials. We are committed to maintaining the integrity of the papier mache craft and honoring its history in Italy.

Our commitment to traditional craftsmanship and attention to detail are what set our products apart. Each piece is handmade by skilled artisans using time-tested techniques and the highest quality materials.

Papier mache is a relatively delicate material, so it's important to handle your art piece with care. Avoid exposing it to excessive moisture or direct sunlight, as this can cause the material to weaken or fade. You can clean your piece with a soft, dry cloth or a small amount of water and a mild soap, being careful not to soak the surface.

We offer creative imagination and ideas to innovate a represent beauty and emotions using ancient techniques of hand-made papier mâché.
