Italian furniture designers have always had a strong focus on using quality materials and world-class craftsmanship; Cattelan Italia is no exception.
Cattelan Italia was founded in 1979 in Zane, Italy and is today one of the most recognised brands in the world. The company is known for combining cutting-edge designs with the traditional Italian artisanship of the northeastern regions of Italy. Quality and artisanal expertise are the two core pillars that bring Cattelan products to life and make it such a prominent name in the industry.
Cattelan Italia’s philosophy is to offer maximum transparency and extremely high quality with no compromises. Cattelan was also one of the first companies to join the online marketplace, starting their own store back in 1994! Challenges are always welcome in Cattelan's laboratory and designers always strive to create things that aren't easy to do, focusing on unique designs that really stand out.
Cattelan Italia was born from an idea sparked in the minds of Giorgio and Sylvia Cattelan. They started out producing high-quality tables made of marble intended for the export market.
As the son of a famous carpenter in Thiene, near Vicenza, you would think that Giorgio Cattelan would have followed in his father’s footsteps and used wood as his primary material.
However, he saw a gap in the market for something different, and he combined his knowledge of furniture with business acumen to create a range of marble tables that quickly became sought-after.
In 1989, Cattelan’s collection expanded to include chairs, bookcases and other products. They also began working with wood, metal, glass and leather.
By 1995, Giorgio’s sons Lorenzo and Paolo Cattelan had also joined the company that now specialised in wood and glass tables. By this time, Cattelan Italia had already become an internationally-recognised brand and their products were being exported to more than 100 markets around the globe.
In 2011, Cattelan Italia bought ARKETIPO, a Florentine company known worldwide for its sophisticated, haute couture products. This is when the company ventured into the upholstery world, with one of Giorgio’s son, Lorenzo, at the helm of ARKETIPO. His other son, Paolo, takes care of the marketing and has been a key person in the commercial and design evolution of Cattelan Italia.
Today, more than 40 years since its inception, Cattelan Italia continues to create beautiful marble furnishings, but with their expanded range, they are also one of the biggest furniture manufacturers in Italy.
With the transition to the next generation, new-found ingenuity and creativity have been infused in the remarkable designs and products as their latest collections include beds, desks, mirrors, lamps and media units.

Here are a few reasons we believe Cattelan Italia products have been able to maintain their prestige even after all these decades and will be an excellent choice of furniture to consider for your next project:
Every home needs a ‘wow factor’ that can transform it into an exquisite sanctuary and every Cattelan Italia product certainly has the potential to do so. The furniture is beautifully-crafted and has a timeless appeal, which ensures that it never goes out of style, which is great if you’re not looking to switch out your furniture to buck the latest trend each year but are instead desirous of a piece that will ‘live’ beyond these trends.
Cattelan Italia is a brand that has always been known for combining impeccable style with unmatched quality. Take a closer look at their products and you’ll be impressed with their solid construction, sturdiness, durability and amazing craftsmanship, all of which are important things to consider when buying luxury furniture.
The “made in Italy’ philosophy of Cattelan Italia focuses on maintaining the quality and attention to detail, but the creative aspect requires the skills of experienced designers. For this, the brand is not bound by borders. Over the years, some of the world’s most talented designers have collaborated with Cattelan Italia to create products that are not just aesthetically pleasing but are also functional for a contemporary lifestyle. Some notable designers who have collaborated with Cattelan Italia include Aldo Greco, Raffaello Galiotto, Brogliato Traverso and Oriano Favaretto. These collaborations also ensure that there’s always something new and exciting on the horizon geared to set new trends and keep their customers enticed.
At FCI London, we offer a huge range of Cattelan Italia products and, with the brand design being so versatile, we’re sure you’ll find something that will appease any taste – whether for yourself or your project.
Cattelan Italia has always demonstrated a high level of versatility by developing and combining different materials to create unique designs that have allowed the brand to stay ahead of its competitors. The jaw-dropping designs are not made to blend in, rather, they are purposefully designed to stand out and to become the focal point of any domestic or commercial space that they’re placed in.
Being one of the most influential Italian furniture brands, it comes as no surprise that Cattelan Italia has always chosen to experiment with the most unconventional materials. From designing and rendering to production and distribution, the latest technologies have been adopted to ensure that the finished pieces exceed the customer’s expectations.
As an example, the brand leveraged the popularity of its Keramik products and developed a new technique that allowed ceramic surfaces to appear as marble but with enhanced qualities including being heat-proof, water-proof and scratch-proof.
All Cattelan Italia products are completely manufactured in Italy by the hands of expert craftsmen, many of whom have been working with the company for several decades. As the business expanded, Cattelan Italia was able to establish a trusted network of collaborators within Italy to ensure that they continue to provide the highest-quality products to their clients.
Here’s a look at the Cattelan Italia product range:
Cattelan Italia offers a wide range of dining tables in many noble materials and exclusive finishes that speak to the heart. To offer multifunctionality and ideal space management, many of the tables come equipped with the latest extension mechanisms. The Ceramic dining tables focus highly on aesthetical sophistication as they prominently stand out in any ambience. On the other hand, the glass dining tables bring an element of airiness to the space while the wooden dining tables are replete with their own classic appeal. For those who wish to have both, the lightness of glass and the elegance of earthy colours, the Crystal Art finish is the perfect alternative.
No matter what finish and design you choose, every Cattelan Italia dining table is designed to fit into any setting – bold or simple, traditional or modern, these tables work well with any decorating style. So whether you’re planning on placing the table in the dining room or the kitchen, or place it centrally or adjacent to the wall, you’ll never need to worry about how it will fit in with the overall room design. In fact, the tables are so tastefully sculptured that you would even want to pull up a chair and use it as a workstation.
One of our best-selling Cattelan Italia dining tables has been the Skorpio dining table. Designed by Andrea Lucatello and Paolo Cattelan, the Skorpio table comes in an iconic design and it won’t be an exaggeration to consider it as a work of art. In the age of modern minimalism where everyone wants simple but statement-making furniture, the Skorpio table responds to this demand by offering a classic design with a modern twist.
The main highlight and distinguishing feature of this table is its metallic base with distinctively interlocked legs. Choose your tabletop finish from wood, glass or ceramic. Whatever your choice, these finishes make this table the perfect base for some fabulous, and insta-worthy, flat lay photography. If you’re someone who loves to entertain and host soirees, then this table is going to be the showstopper for many dinner parties.
You don’t buy a dining table every day, so it is best to go for one that’s not just attractive but also practical and versatile. The Skorpio table looks great no matter how many chairs you set it up with; you can easily set it up with two to 14 chairs, depending on your need and the table size that you choose.
If you’re still shopping around, there’s a good chance that you’ve found similar contemporary tables that look great, but perhaps its configuration wasn’t as comfortable as you had hoped it would be.

Characterised by their distinguished design, Cattelan Italia offers a collection of modern, high-end sideboards. From entryways to dining rooms, these sideboards can add a touch of luxury to any space. They are available in a range of materials including graphite, embossed wood, keramik and extra clear glass for those who want to put their belongings on display. Almost all of these sideboards offer some level of hidden storage ensuring that it doesn’t only exude charm but also offers thoughtful functionality. Want something that is really unique to you? Well, you’re in luck as the sideboard doors can also be customised with sliding, swinging or glass doors.
Here are four of our favourite Cattelan Italia sideboards that are practical for storage purposes but don’t compromise on their luxurious exterior. It doesn’t get better than these sideboards to add a touch of glamour to any room.
Absolut offers a unique combination of electrifying quilted leather doors and a metallic base, which means that it can give any room an elegant touch. The sideboard is available in white, black or graphite-painted glass top and wooden frame with internal shelves in clear glass.
It offers ample storage and since it is a low sideboard offering a sleek look, it would be ideal for smaller spaces or hallways.
With its wooden frame and stainless steel base, the Labyrinth sideboard features a mesmerising maze on its doors. The texture of the maze gives this sideboard such a fresh and fun look, that it would even fit beautifully in a kid’s bedroom or playroom. The Labyrinth is a must-have for anyone who is tired of the same old, boring looking sideboards.
If you prefer something that truly stands out with a slightly retro feel, we recommend Royalton. You can choose from either Canaletto walnut or burned oak doors, with an extra clear glass top and graphite embossed steel base. Select the dimensions and number of doors – varying from 3 to 4 – according to your taste.
Perfect for modern environments, Royalton gives you the additional advantage of having both open and closed storage.
If you like the idea of fancy embellishments, then the Royalton sideboard is what you are looking for. As its name suggests, Royalton is a spectacular piece of art that belongs in a castle! It comes with lacquered polyurethane doors featuring a bold but easy-on-the-eye diamond-cut design for which you can choose your favourite finishing in matt white, graphite or titanium.
Plus, you have the option of adding an internal drawer to each door. We personally believe that it would make a picture-perfect hallway sideboard if set up along with the Cattelan Italia Egypt mirror which comes in a mini-pyramid patterned wooden frame that’s pretty similar to the Royalton.
These perfectly crafted pieces truly have the potential to make your home look and feel as luxurious as a five-star hotel. And it can be safely said that the right Cattelan Italia sideboard can create the feeling of warmth and comfort that you seek after a long and tiring day. So let us know which of these sideboards you have your eyes on and we’ll make sure that we offer you our best deals with some expert recommendations.
