Materials
We start with the raw materials. The traditional
mystery of quality in the finished product depends
wholly on the quality of the raw materials. It's an
extremely simple fact and it's one which is
confirmed by every piece crafted by François & Co.
So, the real main characters are the raw materials:
marble, quartz, limestone. Nothing can compare
with the marvelous characteristics of these natural
stones. We buy only the best that the stone banks
can offer.
Our SMALTI Glass mosaic collection is handcrafted
entirely from the intricate and coveted Orsoni
Smalti; a material with such heritage that transports
us back to the Byzantine.
