A SELECTION OF OUR PRODUCTS





A HISTORY OF EXCELLENCE
For Over 120 Years
Picchiani and Barlacchi was founded in 1902. Despite a century having passed, our creations still have the power to commemorate special national and international events.
The company is now in its fifth generation, led by Matteo Parri, supported by his mother Chiara and aunt Giovanna.
We are leaders in Italy in metalworking, creating long-lasting Made in Italy products following the Florentine tradition.
In our historical archive, we preserve over 400,000 molds that trace the highlights from the early 1900s onwards.
PRODUCTION STAGES

DESIGN
We study the creation of the product design, which will be delivered to you as a free sketch, created in an original way and protected by copyright.

MODEL
The sculptor creates the plaster model by hand, creating all the relief details with the utmost precision to guarantee an excellent result.

BRONZE CASTING
The cast bronze is poured into the impression made from the plaster, and the "artistic model" obtained is refined and worked on by our engravers.

PUNCH
From the bronze model, the reproduction (called a "punch") of the design is obtained through a pantograph. Our engravers then perfect it using gravers. The punch is tempered at around 850° to make it resistant to the stresses of the machines.

DIE
By impressing the punch on a soft steel form, the die, or mold, is obtained. Our engravers intervene once again to enhance the details lost during the various stages of production. The die is then tempered.

STRIKING
Now it is possible to proceed with the striking of the product. At the end of production, the die is preserved in our archive to preserve it over time and guarantee it for life.

GALVANIC FINISHING
The product is finished galvanically. Furthermore, through patination, the chiaroscuro is enhanced. A protective layer is applied to prevent alterations over time, making the object eternal.

ENAMELING
If requested by the customer, we can customize the product with enamels.

QUALITY CONTROL
Once the production process is completed, the pieces are individually inspected and selected. Each product can be packaged in a customizable case.
