Burnishing
Burnishing is always performed by hand to darken and lighten
surfaces simultaneously, evoking slight ageing on the metal surface.
The beauty of brass means that it changes with time, proudly
revealing its age.
Galvanizing
Brass gains a new form through the galvanizing process. The natural
qualities of the material are enhanced with polished or brushed
chrome, nickel and matte effects.
Silver soldering
Metals continue to be soldered by hand for Officine Gullo products
because only the human eye can spot details that machinery is still
unable to see.
Chiselling
Chiselling by master craftspeople ensures that all Officine Gullo
products are refined in every detail.
Lathing
Handcrafted products such as solid brass bars are shaped using a
lathe. Every piece is shaped and worked on the lathe before entering
into production.
Hand hammering
Hand hammering on the trim and panels accentuates the texture of
the metal and achieves unique weave.
