Annibale Colombo

“Annibale Colombo” through its history (more than 200 years of tradition) has defended and defends again today its memory; the company started up in Brianza in 1812 with a small workshop founded by Filippo Colombo. He produced furniture pieces, real works of art, for the Milanese middle class of the period who was in love with French subtleties.

After having taken the name of ANNIBALE COLOMBO, the company took up its seat in Novedrate, in the actual modern headquarter of 8000 square meters designed by Afra and Tobia Scarpa. This headquarter is devoted to a production of high quality cabinet-making, which combines perfectly industrial processes – characterized by forefront technologies – and human skills, guardians of an antique and precious handicraft tradition appreciated all over the world. Here materials, manual ability and technology meet and produce classic and contemporary furniture pieces of unique elegance and beauty.

Nowadays, Annibale Colombo is a landmark in the outline of high cabinet-making and can boast an inestimable know-how, which expresses itself in the unique ability to interpret and use materials and in the creation of furniture pieces with the fascination of the unique piece.
