The choice of the wood Strong, generous, rich in history and tradition. No-
thing is fi ner or warmer than wood. The ‘Le Gemme’ collection comes out of this
warmth and the solidity of the wood boards that Le Fablier’s professionals have
carefully and expertly selected. They choose the fi nest woods, ensure the best cut
and check for optimal seasoning. All with complete respect for the nature and
beauty of traditional woods.
Crafting Throughout the generations, from master to master, the noble art of
woodworking has found a devoted guardian in Le Fablier. As the heir of this
ancient art, it respects its secrets and principles to craft each piece exclusively in
keeping with the fi nest and oldest traditions, from dovetail joints to the framing
of backs and drawers, from the profi led details in solid wood to the hand-fi nished
carving. These pieces of art come out of history to become timeless and be em-
blazoned in the minds of their owners with the very strength and heat of fi re. Just
like the fi rebrand that marks and distinguishes every single Le Fablier piece.
The secrets Thoughts, memories and feelings. There are some things that it is
good to recover and protect. These things do not like to assert themselves, prefer-
ring to stay stored in places created to preserve their wonder. Concealed drawers,
hidden little corners, unexpected co partments. Le Fablier’s furniture pieces hide
their secrets like faithful guardians of myster- ious charms found in remote lands.
And the owners of these pieces can turn these moments into the emotions they
hold.
The fi nishing details The highest perfection is in the specifi cs. The most com-
plete beauty is in the details. Especially in a piece of furniture that must express
the grace and elegance every day of the year. This is why every last fi nishing detail
of Le Fablier furniture, from the most elegant profi led details to the most precious
weaving, is designed to ensure its absolute historic accuracy, uniformity of style
and match the inspiration of every detail with its original context. What time re-
turns to us is simply reality.
Polishing Beauty is never just what you see with your eyes. It is the scents, the
feelings and the tactile pleasure of the surfaces to be caressed. This is why the
beauty of each Le Fablier piece is completed by an old ritual: polishing executed
following the most rigorous traditional methods and completed with a manual
application of pure beeswax. The master polisher knows how to exalt this warm,
shining beauty that can be renewed every day with a simple wool cloth. Nature,
tradition and culture. It is as if the fi nest wood had captured the light of the sun
inside itself and suddenly decides to let it out.
Stylistic research Every Le Fablier piece’s best friend is time. This means that it
wants to know time, respect it and guard its stories. This is why each creation is
born exclusively of designs that keep to specifi c references from the most impor-
tant stylistic traditions of the countries of origin. Master designers guide the best
carpenters in creating furniture that must be able to understand and anticipate
the needs of homes that are always adapting. The ‘Le Gemme’ collection is inten-
ded to offer the perfect, customized solution for those who wish to live in their
homes amidst a harmonious balance of beauty, functionality and exotic feeling.
Every moment in history in which someone has looked to nature to fi nd balance,
taste, serenity and poetry has become our inspiration and our vocation to redi-
scover the beauty of warm atmospheres with the secrets and the arts of the most
ancient craftsmanship. And to continue to move those who choose to live in a
style and know that the only path to take is the one back.
