Collection: Porada
Porada was founded in 1968 by Luigi Allievi to produce chairs, an activity he began in 1948. The company was born from his decades-old passion for handcrafting every trunk of solid wood into a unique work of art. Porada soon became synonymous with excellence, quality, and professionalism, continuing the family tradition. The company established a solid and well-defined identity thanks to its woodworking experience. Now guided by Luigi Allievi's sons, the company finds its full expression in creating refined products for residential and contract contexts.
