Beautifully crafted by hand, by artisans who have handed down this craft from father to son

Cosmati pavement (section) consisting of petals and fragments in two tones of Travertine and Black Limestone .

Cosmati work is highly decorative, with inlays of coloured stones,  mosaic , glass and  gold leaf . A feature of 12th Century Italian architecture, it is named after the Cosma family who were its traditional exponents. 

De Ferranti has rediscovered and nurtured this ancient craft and will design, commission and install fabulously detailed  Cosmati walls and floors to special order.

One of many from De Ferranti's  Cosmati series.
