Ser batidor de oro es un oficio en peligro de extinción, pues la hoja de oro batido se produce de manera industrial en varios países, especialmente en China. La historia del último batidor de Venecia, es la de la familia de Marino Menegazzo, un artesano que mantiene el oficio de golpear el oro a mano con un mazo. Están muy orgullosos de su artesanía y de su negocio familiar. Por cada lingote de oro de 120 gramos se pueden producir entre 1.000 y 6.000 hojas de oro.

00:08I'm Marino Menegazzo, I'm the last battiloro in Venezia and I'm also the last battiloro artisan of all Europe.
00:16And I'm here to show you that, as a ringtone, we can recover, with the hand, thousands and more pieces.
00:34All right, this is a ringtone of about 120 grams.
00:43From this ringtone, depending on the coordination we will have, we will recover from 1000 to 6000 leaves.
01:06The ringtone is yellow, you see, and this shows that it's pure gold.
01:11If it's yellow, it's red, it means that inside there are rings.
01:21There's a ringtone, an orange, or other kinds of rings.
01:42We need 330 pieces to form the whole package.
01:48And of these 330 pieces, they will be divided into 4 pieces.
01:52And each quarter will be put into the form that will be made.
01:55They are Tools.
02:09This is a ringtone, right?
02:11This is a ringtone, right?
02:14This one, this one, this one, this one, this one...
02:16This is a martello to 8 kg, which weighs a little bit more, but it doesn't make much more.
02:34It's a huge weight, because it's a very special job,
02:41and it's a huge risk of extinction, which sometimes hurts to think that maybe it's going to lose.
