This tiny cork workshop’s story began with Eligio Fabris, craftsman with over 30 years of experience in applied textured products and artistic effects.
His inclination towards research, innovation and experimentation, united with his attention for sustainability, brought him to take an interest in the world of cork. He took his first steps creating roses made out of this material, and over time he enriched his production to include accessories for weddings and home decors, gifts, functional and decorative objects of any kind, all customizable. Thus, cork is sculpted into flowers and other shapes, and processed in order to resemble stone or marble. Eligio strongly believes in the value of craftsmanship: therefore, all his creations are handmade with sustainable materials and techniques, employing original processing methods he invented himself.

Fabris Solution represents a rarity in the processing of cork, which is usually used in sheets. Instead, Eligio treats it as a true sculptural material, as if it was stone, and thus he manages to achieve effects that give to cork the appearance of a light stone.
