Italian furniture
Italian design is more than aesthetics. It is the everyday pleasure of living with refined form — soft lines, noble materials, light reflecting off brass, Murano glass, and polished wood. In our collection, you will find original Italian furniture and lighting from the 1950s to the 1980s, combining craftsmanship with an exceptional sense of proportion — from freestanding teak shelving units, through rosewood tables and sideboards, to sculptural mirrors and lamps.
What distinguishes Italian-style furniture?
Italian modernism is defined by comfort and the sensuality of materials. These are pieces that age beautifully — developing patina, gaining character, while remaining relevant in contemporary interiors. In the living room - they create an elegant backdrop; in the dining room - a setting for shared moments; in the office - a frame for focus. Each piece tells the story of its designer, maker, and previous owners — a story you can continue in your own space.
- Noble materials — teak, rosewood, walnut, brass, and Murano glass create a sense of depth and warmth.
- Soft geometry — rounded edges, slender profiles, and visual lightness of form.
- Light as a material — Murano lamps and chandeliers shape the space with a subtle, atmospheric glow.
- Function meets scenography — furniture is functional, yet always ready to play a leading role in the interior.
Icons and classics of 20th-century Italian furniture
- Italian shelving systems and room dividers — freestanding modular units from the 1960s and 1970s that organize and enrich space. Pay special attention to Italian teak furniture, which works beautifully in living areas.
- Italian-style tables and sideboards — rosewood and teak tops from the 1960s and 1970s bring pronounced grain patterns and rich, deep tones.
- Murano lighting — “Torciglione” glass, opaline glass, and forms attributed to masters such as Carlo Nason add theatricality without excess.
- Italian seating and details — armchairs from the 1950s in the style of Gigi Radice for Minotti, or iconic Cesca chairs produced in Italy by Gavina, introduce modernist lightness. Complete the composition with brass mirrors and tables in the spirit of Hollywood Regency.
How to introduce Italian vintage style into your interior
- Start with light — a single Murano lamp can transform the atmosphere of a room.
- Add structure — a sideboard or chest of drawers organizes the space and highlights ceramics, books, and glass.
- Create zones — a freestanding shelving unit can act as a subtle room divider in an open-plan interior.
- Balance textures — combine warm wood with brass and soft textiles.
- Find proportions — Italian design works best in pairs: furniture and lighting.
Our offer includes both striking icons — such as the modular Camaleonda sofa (Mario Bellini, 1970s) — as well as subtle accents: brass side tables, mirrors, and wall lights in the spirit of Gio Ponti.
