THIS IS NOT A STORY ABOUT A COMPANY

This is a story about the feeling that Made in Italy design is able to evoke and about the balance of the ingredients that, like in a perfect recipe, make truly unique the experience of looking at an object, touching it and plunging into its mood.
This is a story about a family, one that orbits around two Italian enlightened entrepreneurs, Luigi and Paolo Bestetti; it’s about the DNA characterizing the Italian family companies, sprouting from the love of a material and carrying around the manufacturing culture.
This family story starts from the hide passion and grows thanks to the human capital, the people with whom you constantly work and measure yourself. This is a young story, dating back only to 1990, but looking way back in time, to a century-old entrepreneurial tradition, flourished on the Como Lake fertile land, that has always been producing the excellence in furniture for aristocracy first and middle class after, and that today pursues in its creations for all the beauty lovers.
This is a 100% Italian story beaming into the international panorama, one that starts from the reinterpretation of the English taste and evolves, through the art of leather working and shaping, into the production of unique collections.
This is the story of Baxter.

future is evolution: forms and materials chase each other to give life to exclusive creations that come to life from the encounter between art and industrial production, between air and technical processes. The leap into creativity has no limits and the result is always different and unique.
This is the story of a family: the Granchi family, one of those Italian families that in the economic fabric of Italy constitute the “vital hub” of companies that are born from the love for the product they create. It all started in the ’60s with a very small company. Paolo and Gianna, husband and wife, founded SIGMA L2 that with care and craftsmanship started to produce lights, vases, objects and furnishings in ceramics. The sons of Paolo and Gianna had to enter the company very young, in 1993, after the premature death of their father, they continued the path of stylistic research that he set forth. They grew professionally under the guidance of their mother and, with time, lead the company to open to new developments, making it increasingly eclectic, dynamic and exclusive, while preserving the cultural peculiarity of the artisan manufacture. Distinguished by the small Crab that has become a symbol of the brand, they introduced innovative processes, resulting in new and daring combinations of materials. Ceramic is now mixed with brass and iron, glass and crystal, wood and marble, hard stones and leather.

Design Classics

Tacchini is a philosophy. Behind every object there’s a story and behind every story there’s a person. We fall in love with products, their stories and the stories
of those who have produced them, and the story continues, is passed on by the designer to the creator and from the creator to the future owner of the product. And then it continues further. Maestri or “masters” are those charismatic figures capable of teaching and handing down an art through their direct actions and also through the inheritance of their actual works. In design the maestri communicate through the classics, timeless designs far from any idea of fashions and trends yet so powerful as to produce a style naturally.

The idea of the Oscarmaschera as a project and a company is well expressed through its collections and the direction they all take as one, all demonstrating a clear passion for the leather and its capabilities.
All their objects are made with full grain leather, which is the outermost layer and most valuable part of the hide. It is an authentic, Italian, vegetable-tanned material (tannins extracted from the bark of certain plants such as mimosa and chestnut).
Processing is traditional: it is a process that requires time and accuracy. The leather must retain all of its characteristics and its history. After immersion in the barrels, the drying, dyeing and the ironing, the chosen material is ready to be manipulated, cut and sewn. This is the path the hide follows before arriving at Oscarmaschera workshop to be transformed into everyday objects.
