Antica Bottega Artistica Dal Toso is a historical workshop located a few steps from Porta S. Lucia. You can hear the sound of the hammer characterizing since four generations the craft of the coppersmith.
The founder Augusto Dal Toso in 1896 started the business by manufacturing items of daily use such as buckets and pots. It was later joined by his son Igino, leader craftsman and President of the Cassa Mutua of the Artisans of Vicenza. Some years later, Luigi too entered the family workshop, specializing in the production of artistic and ornamental embossing and chasing objects.
Passion and patience are two of the fundamental tools for this work, in addition to a vast selection of hammers, anvils and chisels, all tools similar to those used more than a century ago.
Since 2002 the business is held by Igino Alessandro, son of Luigi and grandson of the founder Augusto: now in its fourth generation, the Antica Bottega continues on his way.
