Decorative antlers

Petri Firenze offers exciting objects that combine the beauty of nature with the craftsmanship of highlighting every detail, using both new and ancient techniques. These are luxurious collections created in the Petri workshop in San Casciano Val di Pesa, on the hillside of Florence. Here, in the heart of the Chianti region, where art, nature, history, and technique have always coexisted and intertwined, Simone Petri founded a brand capable of creating true objects of wonder.

Elegant shells, fossils, gemstones, crystals, beads, noble wood, and animal horns come together with precious metals to become furniture accessories rich in charm and stories to tell. In this way, they transform into something unique, original, timeless, and capable of maintaining their allure forever.

Petri workshop creations are inspired by the old “Wunderkammer,” cabinets of curiosities that eighteenth-century European travelers created from their memories, to give a place to exotic and extraordinary objects, treasures of function, and memories as home decor. Now, as then, these collections provide spaces where we live to remember all the wonders that nature can offer. However, Petri’s products surpass the inspiration and charm of “Wunderkammer,” blending with contemporary design, material furnishings, and the main elegant accents of modern craftsmanship.

History of Petri Firenze

Dynamics, exceptional collections, attention to detail, and the ability to produce both small and large quantities, respecting client needs and deadlines: these have always been the brand’s strengths. Founded in 1991, it initially specialized in cutlery and silver furniture accessories, thanks to the owners’ experience gained in other Florentine companies in the industry. With this consolidated “know-how,” the brand began producing for many leading global manufacturers in the silver decoration sector.

However, over time, public tastes and market needs changed, prompting Simone Petri to experiment with new approaches. Collections became more diverse and are now renewed twice a year, while maintaining a connection to traditional silver work, enriched with extraordinary objects and materials—from gemstones to quartz, from coral to shells, from animal horns to fossils. Petri’s brand is capable of managing the entire production cycle: from designing the object, even using the latest technology, to creating prototypes, and finally delivering a finished item with attention to every detail.

Thanks to new series, in addition to the Italian market, which was dominant in the early years, exports have been added, now representing the “main activity” of the brand with significant commercial opportunities, especially across Europe, the United States, and Arab countries. Its participation in major trade fairs such as Maison et Objet in Paris and Homi in Milan has also had a significant impact.

Today, besides supplying other companies and specialty shops, the artisan Petri company mainly collaborates with architects and interior designers: professionals seeking unique, even custom-made elements. Small and large works of art that add a touch of magic to their surroundings.

One thing, however, remains unchanged: for Simone and his colleagues, creating “objects of wonder” is not just work; it’s also fun, passion, and love for beauty. A way to share the joy of their discoveries with the company’s clients.
