E' comunque nota soprattutto per la produzione dei bellissimi [[overlay|rivestimenti]] realizzati per conto della [[Waterman]], fra i più raffinati dell'epoca, di cui l'azienda divenne ufficialmente il produttore negli anni all'incirca 1931/32.<ref>secondo quanto riportato da Letizia Iacopini [http://xoomer.virgilio.it/leiacopi/waterman_fset.htm qui].</ref>
