Led by Barbara Canoci, the business is based in Corso Carlo e Nello Rosselli and stands out for its ability to give new life to materials and objects, drawing out the hidden soul within things. Every creation is a unique piece that tells a story, born from the meeting of artisanal imagination and matter.

The process begins with listening to the material. alchimiaepolvere selects objects and materials destined for abandonment, recognising in them the potential for a new life.
The work unfolds through a dialogue between imagination and matter. The artisan intervenes with manual techniques, following the suggestions the object itself offers during the process.
Every piece that leaves the workshop is a one-of-a-kind example, unrepeatable in form and history. The transformation restores dignity and function to what seemed spent.
