The Frescobol Bat

Our first-ever product, the embodiment of our ‘craft-deco’ ethos, and the namesake of our brand: the iconic frescobol bat.

 

An elevated take on the game that celebrates the simplicity of the Carioca lifestyle, our frescobol bats are made one-of-a-kind by our proprietary savoir-faire.

Our bat’s craftsmanship is entirely local, starting their journey via Brazil's furniture industry. Each tree that is utilized for production leaves behind smaller offcuts from varied species of Brazilian wood, mostly Ipe (Brazilian Walnut); Cedro (cedar), Pinus (Pine), Masaranduba (Beefwood). 

Rather than allow these to be discarded, our skilled marceneiros join either five (for our Trancoso set)  or 17 (for our Leblon set) pieces to form the signature symmetrical base of our wooden bats. These are then carefully carved and sanded to create the smooth face of the bat. The finished shape (and now widely recognisable silhouette) is heat-stamped with our logo before coating with a natural resin that is waterproof and sand-resistant to keep your bat at its best.


A grip is hand-wrapped around the handle, made from uniquely pressed neoprene for cushioned and non-slip texture. Choose from our range of custom colours to customise your bats even further. 

Due to their handcrafted nature, each of our frescobol bats is unique in both weight and composition, making yours completely one-of-a-kind. 

 

We have the option to engrave yours, or your loved one’s, initials on the face of our bespoke bat sets , for a highly personalised gift this holiday season.
