When one speaks of Italian furniture mastery, one speaks of a heritage spanning generations, where craftsmanship is passed down like precious family heirlooms. Established in 1936 in the Padua region, this distinguished house began as a small artisanal workshop specialising in metal processing before evolving into the global design phenomenon we represent today.
What sets this Italian brand apart is their unwavering commitment to innovation whilst honoring traditional craftsmanship. Their pieces don't merely occupy space—they transform it, creating visual poetry through unexpected proportions and architectural silhouettes.
The materials selection process alone is a testament to their dedication to quality. From sumptuous Italian leathers treated using centuries-old techniques to metals bent with precision that would make engineers marvel, each element undergoes rigorous scrutiny before being deemed worthy of inclusion.
Perhaps most impressive is their collaborative spirit. The catalogue features creations from some of design's most illustrious names: Karim Rashid, whose organic forms challenge conventional notions of furniture; Alain Gilles, whose Big Table has become an icon of contemporary design; and Mauro Lipparini, whose minimalist aesthetic has defined an era of Italian sophistication.
At FCI London, we've witnessed firsthand how these pieces transform our clients' homes. The dining table that began as a functional necessity becomes a sculptural centrepiece around which family traditions form. The sofa that was selected for its proportions becomes the silent witness to countless moments of repose and connection.
Their current collections span the entire home landscape—from dining ensembles that encourage lingering conversations to bedroom suites that cocoon one in luxury, from lighting that casts artful shadows to accessories that provide the perfect finishing touch. Each piece bears the unmistakable signature of Italian excellence while maintaining a distinct personality.
