PRICE ON REQUEST ABOUT PAOLO BUFFA Paolo Buffa (1903–1970), born in Milan, was a master of Italian design, celebrated for his seamless synthesis of classical elegance and modern refinement. His work, distinguished by exquisite craftsmanship and an innate sense of proportion, elevated furniture design to an art form. Collaborating with esteemed cabinetmakers such as Mario Quarti, Buffa created bespoke pieces that embodied sophistication, often featuring delicate marquetry, sculpted forms, and the finest materials. His interiors, commissioned for aristocratic residences and luxury hotels, exuded a quiet opulence—never ostentatious, yet undeniably grand. A designer of rare finesse, Buffa’s legacy endures in the timeless beauty of his creations, which continue to inspire collectors and connoisseurs of Italian design.
