Elegant Cortez III dining table with a marble top

The Malabar brand was founded in 2012 with the launch of a wide range of decorative Fado guitars and the World Architects collection of elegant furniture. It has designed and released a total of 5 unique series of furniture and accessories.

Malabar has made its mark at major international fairs such as 100% Design London, Maison & Objet, Decorex, Stockholm Furniture Fair, and Seoul International. These are top-tier venues to showcase one's work.

Malabar's furniture production comes from the Porto area, a northern region in Portugal with a long and strong tradition in handcrafted products.

The identity of this prestigious brand is based on the national architectural and artistic heritage of the past 5 centuries. International experience and the pursuit of perfection are the details that guide such original companies. Emotions, craftsmanship, and out-of-this-world design create an explosive mix of luxury furniture. Various techniques for crafting goods from natural wood produce amazing effects, as seen in Malabar's exceptional collections.

An important aspect of design is the combination of neutral and black colors. Juicy and vivid colors dominate, significantly deviating from classic and template furniture. In addition to wood, the manufacturer uses brass, gold and silver leaf, as well as other high-quality raw materials. The Portuguese soul is very colorful and fascinating, clearly visible in the bold furniture designs.

The company's name comes from Malabar black pepper. Along with other spices, it changed the course of trade history with the discovery of the cape. It was the value of original spices that prompted Portuguese merchants to chart a daring sea route. This continues today, as Malabar sets very individual boundaries in design and evokes extreme emotions with its projects. They are very liberated, seductive, bold, and extremely luxurious.
