TEXTURED AND
METALLIC LACQUERS
Many of the lacquers by Armani/Casa show a distinctive
look, given by the texture or the metallic shine of the
surface. Egypt Lacquer is a perfect example, since it is the
result of the combination of three different techniques:
after being painted to recreate a laminated look, a technical
fabric is crumpled, glued on the supporting panel and
lacquered. Among others, we can mention crackled
lacquers – reproducing the crackled surface of precious
vintage objects – and lacquers inspired by metals.
Black Striped Lacquer adds a carving to the surface of
our usual black lacquer to recreate a three-dimensional
canneté look. The carved lines do not continue on the
whole wideness of the lacquer, hence giving the illusion of
a fading design. The width and the length of the lines can
vary from piece to piece, since they are obtained thanks to
an artisanal production process.

LIQUID METAL
Liquid metals are a new generation of lacquers featuring real
metal pigments, which give the finishes a distinctive look: in
fact, all these materials present a typical reflectance and
a cold touch resembling the one of real metal. Depending
on the support – carved, brushed or perfectly even – and
the desired hue, it is possible to obtain different effects.
On ash, for example, it is possible to appreciate the natural
veins of wood below the silver lacquer, while the carved
versions create the illusion of vintage metal rods.
