Riccardo Barthel’s Creative Workshop
Our love for Barthel
Riccardo Barthel: he who had the power to recreate the ancient giving it new life in the modern and contemporary, making beauty something intangible and timeless.
The Tuscany you don't expect is closer and able to surprise you more than you can imagine.
Riccardo Barthel “A DESINARE”
The heart of the Florentine artisan tradition rises in the Oltrarno area,
the headquarters of the Barthel universe,
an articulated interior design studio, flanked by carpentry and restoration workshops
and an intriguing showroom opened exclusively for us.

Where once the activities of a mechanical workshop and a silver foundry were palpitating, now there is Riccardo Barthel’s creative workshop.
And when it's time for ‘desinare’ (dinner), on the second floor there is a wonderful equipped kitchen space, created by Francesco Barthel, born into art, like the whole DESINARE world around him: original vintage plates, china, glasses and antique silverware, but also textiles, books and cooking tools.
