Gondola Craft – Squeri Boatyards and Traditional Techniques
Inside Venice's squeri boatyards: woods, asymmetry, ferro balancing, and how gondolas are made and kept alive by craft.

Gondolas are handmade traditions — ribs, planks, iron, and varnish tuned for single-oar life.
Key materials
- Oak and larch planking.
- Walnut for forcola.
- Steel/iron for ferro.
Respect the makers: visit squeri if tours are available.
Bottom line
Every curve is intentional. Venice crafts boats for her water grammar.
