Learn More from Borromeode Silva

We thought about this canoe as a unique piece. We enjoy the idea of the luxury object being sufficient on its own: that it doesn’t exist merely to solve a problem but is justified by its visual proposition. With this canoe, we wanted to showcase our ability to mix traditional craftsmanship and highly technical processes and materials. The hull is made of a combination of copper-woven carbon fiber and classic teak wood. The copper wire weaved in the carbon gives depth to the texture and shimmers under the sunlight making the surfaces come alive, mimicking the shimmering sun reflecting on the water a canoe that is poetic in its making, yet technically strong, durable and light. The teak surface is hand laid by Maestri d'Ascia, one of the oldest and most revered artisanal crafts in Genova.
