A unique, large Italian sofa

The history of the manufactory is similar to many other artisan enterprises that emerged in Italy in the 1960s. Remo Niccolai and Gianfranco Giusti started with the production of stylish upholstered sofas and armchairs, using both fabric and leather.

Soon, they became known for their professionalism and proper approach to business. One of the main factors behind the brand's success was the perfect balance between antiquity and modernity, tradition and innovation, achieved by combining traditional upholstery techniques with contemporary research and design methods.

Great attention is paid to the environment, the rights and responsibilities of employees, and the selection of raw materials; all components that ensure the product is truly Italian. Today, the company is run by the founders' children, who follow in their parents' footsteps. Construction techniques continue to develop while respecting traditions, ensuring that the sofas and armchairs produced are just as durable and comfortable as ever, while also meeting the latest trends and requirements.

Production cycle

All aspects of production are handled internally, guaranteeing not only precision and accuracy at each stage but also overall control of the supply chain, materials, and assembly. The cycle is divided into stages, each carried out by specialized and highly skilled personnel, where expert craftsmanship is complemented by advanced industrial procedures; from carpentry and lacquering to applying gold and silver leaf, padding, and upholstery. Special techniques, such as button tufting or the use of braids and piping, give each product a unique identity. Finally, every piece of furniture is thoroughly inspected, and only after passing quality control can it be shipped.

Italian design

There is one thing that the whole world recognizes Italy for: an exceptional and unique sense of aesthetics, which in the furniture industry manifests in creations with original design and distinctive personality. Since its inception, Altavilla has been a faithful interpreter of this style, showcasing luxurious design, continuing traditions, and responding to the ever-changing needs of international markets. The company designs, creates, and produces sofas and armchairs, always ensuring they are comfortable, durable, and embody the true style of Made in Italy.
