THE
CRAFT
The entire production cycle takes place in-
house and is characterized by a meticulous
attention to detail: from the idea to the
end product, passing through the various
processing stages – from pressure die
casting to lost wax and gravity casting, from
machining to drilling, from satin-finishing to
sand-blasting and polishing. These are the
solid foundations of Ghidini1961.
With over 60 years of history behind it, and
an entrepreneurial wisdom that has
been handed down from father to son,
Ghidini1961 presents furnishings, lamps and
home accessories that are true testimonies
of great Italian craftsmanship combined with
state of the art production technologies,
care for materials, aesthetics and attention
to detail.
With this foundation, our products are not
just meant to decorate a refined environment,
but they represent something valuable,
to be cared of, that can be passed over
through generations thanks to its intrinsic
and long lasting value blended
with iconic and timeless design.
THE
PRODUCTS
The collection includes works of art,
where metal acquires an almost sculptural
power, upholstered furniture, dining tables,
beds, cabinets and finely chiseled home
accessories, bearing witness to Ghidini’s
obsession for details.
The series embrace almost all articles for use
at home, which are interpreted in an unusual
and joyful way: from comfy and versatile
sectional sofas, to very seductive, almost
sculptural upholstered design statements,
such as the Abbracci sofa, conceived by
Lorenza Bozzoli or Stefano Giovannoni’s
Frame collection, where geometric shapes are
softened by the velvety surface of metal to
create a sleek collection of sofas, armchairs,
dining tables, cabinets, bookshelves and beds.
Casted metal elements have given life also
to a series of other iconic products, such as
the Shaker sofa and table, with the casted
wheel that defines the language, to the
brass and leather buckle of the Leisure sofa
and armchair.
In its rich variety, the collection is a selection
of the most significant contemporary creative
expressions, interpreted and enhanced by
Ghidini’s skillful expertise and ability to
interpret metal in all its possible forms.
