Federico Belleli
Handmaker • Lamp Designer • Wooden objects “Born in Mantua in 1976 I graduated in Foreign Languages at the Oxford Linguistic High School in Mantua and later graduated in Interior Design at the Interior Design Institute of Milan.
For almost twenty years I worked in the design of public and private spaces and furnishings, drafting projects, staff support throughout the production process, research and choice of suppliers. Thanks to this I am always in touch with realities that allow me to improve my knowledge and put them into practice in my free time.
Today I create objects of various kinds: lamps, furnishing accessories and in the last period 100% vegan sex toys, always keeping in mind the eco-friendly aspect of each production phase. Every object is born as a unique piece, far from the ideologies of a series production. Each piece comes from an idea, from a randomness out of the corner of the eye, from a moment in which the mind gives free space to the imagination and in an instant here is the object that takes shape, first on paper and then in my small workshop.
All my achievements follow this spirit and want to direct the public to a return to the origins, to the craftsmanship, that work made of experience and passion that makes us rediscover the simplicity of things and the purity of simple ideas but of character.
My creations are mainly a tribute to nature: trunks and branches gathered at the sea or in the mountains and restored to their splendor; a splendor that only nature is able to give them. I do nothing but give it a new function and a new life.
This is my goal, the true spirit of artisanal self-production: from the idea to the finished product without interference. "
