Faq
Are the paperweights handmade?
Yes, all of Stefania Dei Rossi’s paperweights are handmade using artisanal techniques. For the initial collection, 24-karat gold leaf is used, giving each piece a timeless radiance and elegance. In the "Otto per Otto del Battiloro" collection, gold leaf produced by Mario Berta Battiloro, the last master craftsman in Europe, is used. He worked with traditional methods until 2024, and every paperweight is a unique piece, the result of meticulous and highly specialized craftsmanship.
Who is Mario Berta Battiloro?
Mario Berta Battiloro was the last master craftsman in Europe to produce gold leaf using the same techniques and tools that have been used in Venice since the 18th century. His workshop in Venice symbolized the purest goldsmith tradition, and his production of gold leaf, used in the "Otto per Otto del Battiloro" collection, gives the paperweights an inestimable value tied to an artisanal legacy that, unfortunately, will not continue.
Can the paperweights be personalized?
Yes, Stefania Dei Rossi’s paperweights can be personalized. We offer the option to create custom paperweights for special occasions such as wedding favors, corporate gifts, or exclusive event tokens. This flexibility, combined with the artisanal craftsmanship, allows each piece to become a unique and meaningful object, perfect for leaving a lasting impression.
