Making Marbled Paper in Florence, Italy

Visited his shop while in Florence in Sept 2015 and left with many sheets of paper and a leather bound. Journal that he made for us while we waited.

Thank you so much for filming this and sharing it on youtube. I never get tired of seeing this video.

The calm confidence of a master at work. Great video :-)

Such a charming video; inspires me to go there for a vacation! Thank you for posting this ❤️

Thanks for the post, this is why I prefer YouTube to television, best regards and a happy New Year, from Lisbon Portugal.

one of the best things I have seen on YouTube, thanks so much for sharing. Now I know how they decorate the inside of old books. Amazing.!!!

Gorgeous and fascinating. I feel very relaxed after watching that.

Wowy Zowy...Simply Stunning! Julie, thank you so much for sharing this with us!

My dream is to become a professional bookbinder. I wanted to start bookbinding school last year but I couldn't find any craftsman willing to take me in during my learning... I still hope one day I will be able to learn these marvelous arts that are bookbinding and artisanal paper printing (I am learning "modern" printing in school now), but till that day arrives, I watch this kind of video that simply makes my heart burn with passion and longing to discover more about this. I am very grateful I found this video, the shop address is now on the top of my list for the day I will go visit Italy :)

That is exquisite! Just like everything in Firenze is! Firenze is 100 % total and complete eye candy! The art, the monuments, the streets, the food, everything they do is extremely artistic down to the smallest detail. They know the meaning of "God is in the detail!"  I've been there many times and never get enough of the exquisiteness of this city and all its artisans! Pure magic!

Amazing technique and great result! Beautiful!!!

Absolutely beautiful!!
