Il Pezzo Mancante

Who we are

Il Pezzo Mancante was born in 2010, created by Cosimo Terzani and Barbara Bertocci.
Inspired from their passion for quality raw materials and an innate love for their homeland, Tuscany, they create a world made of authenticity and vision in which you can rediscover an extraordinary rich artisan culture.

It is a world that celebrates the beauty of handcrafted pieces; tangible works of art designed to express warmth and a “familiar feel”.
The solid wood, the brass castings, the hand-blown crystal, and the marble sourced from the finest Carrara quarries, are not just icons from the past but symbols of timeless intelligence and elegance rediscovered in modern life.

Il Pezzo Mancante is an atelier that designs and creates unique pieces, a world of memory, material, touch, illuminating the senses. Thoughtful elegance and passion; a place where you can watch, think, do and look for something missing: Il Pezzo Mancante (“The Missing Piece” in english).

Each piece is numbered and hides its own identity stamp, a small brass cylinder that seals and guarantees the authenticity and uniqueness.

The pieces are made in our Atelier based in Florence from a small team of people with whom we share the passion for quality and beauty. Our challenge is to make unique pieces mixing traditional techniques, hand planing and finishing together with the technology and precision of computer aided manufacturing. Any client visiting us has the chance to see how our pieces are made. Visiting our showroom is a bit like following Alice down the rabbit hole, you therefore enter our world: you can smell the precious essential oils that we use to treat our wood, you have the possibility of touching the warmth of our surfaces, the variations of our finishes, the consistence of our materials.
