Rovere fumé

Since ancient times, smoke-effect oak has been a product of nature, created as the oak sits in boggy terrain over centuries. Natural processes blacken the wood, giving it its typical burnished finish. Today, this effect is recreated using colouring techniques. Combined with the wood’s excellent resistance properties, it’s a feature that makes oak particularly suitable for a piano intended for a warm, elegant environment.

The technical files present on this website represent only a selection of the many special “Art Case” pianos built so far. Since wood is a natural product whose features are unique and unrepeatable, the veneers visible in these pictures are purely indicative and non-committing with regard to future creations.
