Daniele Nencioni has been a wood carver since he was 14 years old. He first learned as an apprentice in a workshop in Florence, where his father accompanied him, understanding that the young man was much more drawn to the manual world than to studying. Over the years, Nencioni has become a master of woodcarving, executing reproductions of furnishing accessories, models of bronzes, and restoration work for antiques. He collaborates with architectural firms, international interior designers and renowned museums. His work takes him from restoring parts of famous buildings to creating bespoke pieces of furniture. He believes that behind a piece there must be an artisan who makes it and not a machine. A concept which in the creation of wooden furniture has been lost due to the fashion and demand for mass produced pieces. He maintains that the touch of the human hand can never be truly rivalled.
