Tell us your story.
Our story begins in Bergamo in September 1983. Alberto and his wife Ezia, owners of an architectural studio, started designing pieces for their home that were initially created for personal use and soon became part of their first collection. This is how Pinetti started. Due to these beginnings, the company's essence is artisanal. Its unique trays and other home décor items stand out in the interior décor market for their refined design and quality craftsmanship. In recent years, Pinetti's passion and expertise have given rise to new collections and ideas that have strengthened the brand's international presence. This Italian story of family and entrepreneurial success is now told around the world and is part of the everyday life of five-star hotels, award-winning restaurants, prestigious homes, yachts, and private jets.
Pinetti combines traditional craftsmanship with new and modern technologies. What is your production process? What are the main steps?
We create products starting from the luxury market, which always seeks unique items to meet increasingly sophisticated needs. We then make a prototype and verify its functionality and usage. Finally, we look for reliable partners to help us craft a quality product that meets our standards. In our factory, manual skill meets technology. Here, our craftsmen's creativity, ingenuity, and expertise blend with new technological methods, ensuring flexibility, customization, and utmost care for every detail. Depending on the collection, we hand-sew fabric, laser-cut surfaces with precision machines, hand-paint edges, hand-assemble or hand-upholster, polish, varnish, and engrave or press for customized pieces.
Your collection includes gaming pieces: what is your approach for such unique products?
We approach these products by allowing ourselves the luxury to experiment and create. Pinetti crafts unique objects whose design and essence exude an authentic experience of exclusivity. In the gaming collection, true Italian leather coexists with other noble materials such as walnut, satin- and bronze-finished brass, and alabaster from Volterra. This collection now includes a tris game, two models of domino, two different sets of chess, backgammon, jenga, and a box for poker cards.
What makes a Pinetti creation stand out, and how would you describe Pinetti’s style and aesthetic?
Pinetti's objects have a well-defined aesthetic that is recognizable anywhere. Their graceful and modern design and sophisticated finishes are conceived and crafted to be an ideal complement to luxury homes. Attention to detail and precision in the production process are highly appreciated by customers worldwide.
