Wine Shop Keeper’s Hall

The “wine shop keeper’s hall” is the most striking.
sala_cantiniereThe ancient emblem of a wine shop keeper shades different corners of the hall, all closely related to the magic of history. It is a sly faced figure, with inferior horn limbs, a lantern and some keys in its hands.
A peculiar collection of pewter articles peeks from an ancient wooden cupboard, while a very elegant bronze collection is displayed on an antique box from Fassa. A 18th Century press, displaying ladles, kitchenware and other curios copper items, takes your complete attention, thanks to its majesty and peculiar features.
Basins, buckets, big roasting trays, flasks, ladles, funnels and extraordinary pudding shapes decorate the walls. Imposing water containers, tubs and embossed chiseled containers, all made in copper, stand on the floor.
Exceptionably charming are a 16th Century water container, which was used for the maceration of medical herbs and was found in a monastery in Tuscany, and a basin from the same century embossed with a dolphin. Other curios objects are the tools used to prepare decorated holy hosts for religious festivities.
Coppersmiths’ talent and imagination shows no boundaries and limits.

 

Clock's Hall

sala_orologiThe “clock’s hall” is surely the most typical and curious.
On the central table, a raw copper nugget starts an itinerary that allows visitors to experience the phases of copper’s processing techniques, from extraction to lamination.
Hammers, anvils, pincers and chisels complete the image of how coppersmiths gradually and patiently work with copper.
On the walls, hangs a collection of pendulum clocks from the 18th Century to the 20th Century, together with a selection of ancient and majestic door locks from the gothic and baroque period.
Pudding moulds, set in strange symmetries, seem to play with the vaults. On the furniture, ancient decorated buckets, jugs, amphorae and water containers are displayed.

 

The Holy Spirit Hall

sala_santo_spiritoThe heart of the Collection is “The Holy Spirit Hall”, held in the “Holy Spirit Hall”, so called because of the golden wooden sculpture that overlooks the vaults.
Hung on the walls are various moulds of bed warming pans, pudding moulds, buckets, whetstone containers, embossed and chiseled plates.
On ancient large chests, hand basins from the Sixteen century lay, together with embossed wine tubs (one is dated 1542), a Venetian chiseled lantern and the coach lantern of Earl Sizzo of Ravina.
There is, also, a curious selection of hand warmers and well buckets.
Furthermore, one can find alembics made to distil grappa, buckets, ladles, water basins, cups and whetstone containers.

 

The Fireplace Hall

sala_caminettoThe most imaginative desserts and pudding moulds, lanterns, coffee pots, and kitchenware reign in the"fireplace hall” (one even has the portrait of Pope Pio IX on it). The fireplace made of stone overlooks the hall.
Extraordinary and unique pieces are the Savoia coffee pot and a fasolàra (a pot to cook beans), together with the noble Medici coat of arms.
Around the big table you can find bread and milk containers.
A little door leads to the “kitchen”. Its small size is usual in the big noble environment of noble houses. Coffee pots follow one another on the surfaces, pots and dessert moulds are fastened to the walls, while buckets hang with colanders from the hood.
Ancient tools, linear and wrought antiques, stone and majolica are in perfect synergy with this fairytale world. It’s a case full of memories and history.
