The "Anthea" collection is a collection of true "style" furniture, that is, made from original models of great historical, cultural and artistic value. Many of the furniture in this collection are made in the style of Maggiolini, one of the most famous cabinetmakers in history. The main characteristic of this furniture is the high complexity of production. Valuable and rare essences are applied to the surfaces using the inlay technique: national walnut, walnut feather, rosewood, rosewood, maple, olive, violet wood, zebrawood. Extensive use is made of briars: ash, oak, walnut, myrtle, Persian walnut, olive tree. The processing of these raw materials requires knowledge and skills that are now difficult to find.
