We recommend using woodworking glue for attaching wooden ornaments. First, sand the receiving surface and remove any dust. Apply a thin, even layer of woodworking glue to both surfaces and join the two pieces precisely. During drying, press them together using a clamp or weight. If excess glue seeps out at the sides, wipe it off with a damp cloth before it dries.
If gluing is not suitable for some reason, the wooden ornaments can also be fixed mechanically. For this task, it is recommended to use small brads or wire nails, which are less visible and do not damage the wood. It is important to insert the nails into pre-drilled holes to prevent the wood from splitting. The heads should be countersunk below the wood level, making it easier to aesthetically cover the surface with wood filler later. This method provides a secure and durable solution for fixing the ornament.
Our wooden ornaments are sold pre-sanded and unfinished, giving you full freedom for creative realization. You can paint, lacquer, stain, oil, or even gild the carved surfaces as you wish to match the style of the furniture. For instance, a layer of lacquer provides durable protection against wear. For painting and staining, it is advisable to use filler priming (Milesi), which fills up exposed fibers so they color evenly with the rest of the ornament. Painting covers the wood grain, while other treatments nicely preserve the wood's pattern.
The french lily, also known as bourbon lilie, is one of the most famous motifs of Western European heraldry. As early as the Middle Ages, it appeared on the coats of arms of French royal houses, including the Anjou and Bourbon dynasties. The lily symbolizes purity, dignity, and loyalty, and for this reason, it was often used on ecclesiastic and royal furniture. Cabinetmaker masters in the 18th and 19th centuries adopted this motif, especially in the adornment of baroque and classicist wooden ornaments. The fleur de lis remains a frequently used ornamental element today, as it harmonizes well with both classic and modern furniture.
