Biagio Barile
Biagio Barile was founded in 1920 in the heart of Sorrento—a southern Italian town renowned for its thriving marquetry. The family-run business celebrates the ancient techniques of intarsia: a labor-intensive method that involves transferring sketches onto wooden templates, assembling small pieces of wood, and cutting them by hand with saws, planes, and chisels.
