OSCARMASCHERA is a 100% Italian company that was founded in 2005 out of Oscar Maschera and Claudia Serafini’s profound experience in and knowledge of materials.
Surrounded by the timeless and romantic countryside of Pesaro, the two artists convey their creativity through the production of unique, refined items and small pieces of furniture, all made of leather and natural materials. The product range goes from magazine-holder baskets to log-holders and various-sized boxes, from desk accessories and picture frames to benches, poufs, stools, refined mirrors, carpets and lamps. Oscar Maschera collaborates with internationally renowned designers, such as Nestor Perkal, Claude Bouchard and Nathalie du Pasquier.
All OSCARMASCHERA objects are made in full grain leather, which is the outermost layer and most valuable part of the hide. It is an authentic, Italian, vegetable-tanned material (tannins extracted from the bark of certain plants, such as mimosa and chestnut). Processing is traditional: It is a process that requires time and accuracy. The leather must retain all of its characteristics and its history.

By Nestor Perkal, Oscar Maschera
Located in Brooklyn, NY
"Vaca Colgada" is a large mirror, designed by Nestor Perkal and manufactured by Oscar Maschera. Leather colors available: tan, sienna, orange, red, red-purple, dark brown, khaki, blue, black. DIMENSIONS (metal structure): D. 35.4", W. 47.2", H. 5.9" DIMENSIONS (leather): D. 39.3", W. 51.1" Each mirror is never the same as the one before, nor as the one that comes after, as well as the leather used to make it. Each hide, as it reaches the workshop, is hung on a frame/shelf and a hole is then made in its centre to see the mirror. Each hide is unique, as well as each mirror. "Mirrors should reflect a little before throwing back images." Jean Cocteau, Le sang d'un poète (1930) Nestor Perkal said about "Vaca Colgada": "This object has always fascinated me. Is it there simply to reflect our image or is it looking at us? It envelopes us, searches for us, constantly questions us. At Oscar Maschera I looked for what leather could bring to this object and how it could become its supporting structure." NESTOR PERKAL, born in Buenos Aires, lives and works in Paris. Though he trained as an architect, his work has always been oriented to design and interior architecture. In 1985, he founded an international design gallery in Paris, l’Espace Nestor Perkal, where he was among the first in Europe to show and sell pieces from the “New International Design” movement: Memphis Milano, Mariscal and many others. From 1987-1994, he was the artistic director of the goldsmith’s company Algorithme, where he invited many designers to work on edition projects that were highly successful in France and abroad. As a designer, he has collaborated with Drimmer, Lou Fagotin...
