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 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.
