Barca a vela

This walnut and oak boat is made from reclaimed woods from the lagoon. The 'briccola' is a nautical structure used to indicate waterways (canals) in lagoons in Venice. Corroded by time on the surface, eroded by salt in the part that remains in the water, the worn wood of this iconic lagoon element becomes a beautiful item to look at and to hold.
