Watercolours
Hand-crafted in Assisi with natural pigments, these colours ensure vividness and purity while honoring tradition.
Fabriano Paper
In the town of Fabriano, the European cradle of paper-making, a custom-made loom recreates Coronelli's 17th-century paper.
Larch Resin
Renowned in the 1700s for its strength and durability, this resin is used to provide a high quality finish.
Shellac
Used for finishing surfaces, this resin, obtained from the cochineal secretion, offers a natural shine and long-lasting protectiveness.
Starch glue
This glue, a mixture of 'beech marten heart' starch, resins and essential oils, is entirely chemical-free and long-lasting.
Jute fiber
The fabric of natural jute fibres, an environmentally friendly and sustainable raw material, lends the globe a unique resilience.
Chalk
The globe is moulded using only high-quality chalk, which guarantees a remarkably smooth and even surface.
Wood
The globe is made of wood, as Coronelli prescribes, to ensure a durable skeleton to this elaborate piece of work.
