Poppa fórcola for gondola, pear wood

Fórcola used on stern gondolas made of pear wood carved by hand with traditional rémer tools.

Each piece is unique: it is reproduced by hand when ordered. 

The fórcola is the oarlock, the support on which the oar is pivoted when rowing on Venetian boats. The fórcola has a particular shape for all rowing posts on all types of boats, which also varies according to the body and rowing style of each individual rower. Stern rowing posts allow multiple functions of the oar: there is a point for starting, one for slow rowing and in narrow channels, one for fast rowing alone, another for rowing with another rower on the bow, a stopping point, one for rowing backwards and other points where the oar can be rested in the various manoeuvres.
