L'Olmo
Io sono
il mazzo di chiavi
e
un paio di lenti a contatto
sono l'ombrello che ti ripara dal maltempo
e
l'accendino per accenderti le notti
della vite sono il marito
il sicuro sostegno
il tacito consenso
io sono tutto quello che hai sempre voluto
e
sempre
smarrito
( Vincenzo Capitanucci)
Ulmus Glabra
The wood retains it's natural properties over the passage of time. As there are no chemicals used in the production of our dildos, the surfaces are completely hypoallergenic and will retain the natural feel of wood. Only sunflower oil and beeswax are employed to give a smooth glassy finish, which can be washed with soap and warm water.
Otherwise on request we can cover the sculpture with an impermeable vitreous surface.
Each dildo is completely unique and entirely made by hand. Any imperfections are down to the natural grain in the wood itself.
Each process for the creation of these objects has complied with the most serious and strict controls regarding respect for the natural environment.
