About the Item

An armchair in solid beechwood, with polished legs. Designed and manufactured by the world renowned Giorogetti furniture house. The padding of the seat and of the back is in non-deformable multi-density polyurethane and fibre. The upholstery is in fabric & completely removable. About the company: Giorgetti S.p.A. is a company with over a hundred years of history, the result of a reality in this territory that is synonymous with work and entrepreneurship. To tell the tale of Giorgetti means to tell the economic and evolutionary story of Meda, a city in Brianza situated about thirty kilometres north of Milan. The artisan activity in Meda started in the countryside thanks to the farmers who made extra money by creating work utensils and furniture. Moreover, Meda was initially founded near an important monastery of Benedictine nuns founded in the 8th century and, in 1195, Emperor Henry VI stayed there and later, Emperor Maximilian. The work of the Benedictine nuns and their important guests created the conditions for demand of high quality furniture. The change in local artisanship came about in the second half of the nineteenth century, when the farming crisis determined the breaking up of the big land properties and consequent decline of the agricultural middle class. The next step was the assertion of a new ruling class connected to the burgeoning furniture industry. At the start of the 20th century, Meda was an established furniture centre, and was able to compete with French manufactured goods, thanks to quality products, working techniques and more and more refined wood finishing. This significant improvement in local manufacturing can be attributed to the arrival of the best masters from the art schools of Paris, Venice and Milan; in addition, there was the municipal design and carving school, together with the parish school. It is in this historical context that Luigi Giorgetti started his entrepreneurial adventure. Initially, he set up a shop in Piazza Volta with about 8 workers and then ﾖ in 1898 ﾖ he built his first factory in Via Manzoni.
