Franco Furlanetto is another exceptional workshop in Venice that produces oars and oarlocks made of walnut, pear and cherry wood and inspired by masks and violins. If you go on a gondola ride in Venice, you will probably notice the similarity between the gondolier’s equipment and master Franco’s pieces of art.
Calling his work a piece of art is really no exaggeration as the master’s handiwork earned a wide acknowledgment when it was exhibited in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Franco Furlanetto now produces many works of art in various sizes and forms that are popular as souvenirs, so this is the perfect place to purchase your own mini gondola or special souvenir.
