Disclosed are pieces that are produced by sintering, which have well-differentiated surface finish areas including rough areas resulting from the sintering process, the roughness being determined by the size of grain used in sintering, and polished areas that have undergone a three-dimensional machining process. Also, dislosed is a method that, after obtaining a file containing a representation of the piece to be produced, comprises: selecting the parts to be raised; producing the piece by means of sintering; and subsequently subjecting the piece to automatic, semi-automatic or directed programming generation so that, by means of machining, the raised parts are reduced. Consequently, the resulting piece is economical in terms of costs and exhibits a very high degree of precision in the machined areas, a tolerance 9, and improved finish, texture and finishing in the sensitive areas of the piece.
