Fabio is an accomplished Furniture Artist. Fabio's specialty and passions lie in European finishes and Art Deco.
"Furniture upcycling is about inventing a new life for a piece of decor or furniture, re-creating an atmosphere and inventing a new story. Artists like you seek to develop more and more in-depth skills that empower them to express themselves and transform a piece of furniture or decor into a work of art."
