Handcrafted furniture between Tuscan tradition and sustainable innovation

At Tosconova, handcrafted furniture is much more than a production method. It’s a philosophy, a gesture passed down through generations, and an authentic way of designing the home. Since 1963, the year of our founding, we have combined Tuscan craftsmanship, rooted in art, proportion, and beauty, with constant innovation and research.

We design and produce in-house every product. From the first sketch in the design department to the final touches in our carpentry, upholstery, and lighting workshops, each piece is the result of passionate craftsmanship. We built handcrafted wooden furniture to last, created with care, expertise, and a deep respect for nature. The skilled hands of our artisans shape elegant and durable pieces that are truly one of a kind.

The upholstery atelier: handcrafted furniture, sewn by hand

At the heart of Tosconova lies the upholstery atelier: the place where it all began, and where, to this day, fabrics are chosen, cut, and sewn using tailoring techniques. Here, artisanal quality meets a meticulous selection of raw materials sourced from trusted Italian partners, creating an ethical and traceable supply chain.

We favour fabrics with a story to tell: materials with rich texture, elegance, and a cruelty-free origin, aligned with our responsible vision of beauty. Staying true to these values, our in-house team developed eco-flock: a sustainable, animal-free upholstery material that delivers outstanding performance. It retains its shape over time, offers excellent support, and ensures lasting softness and comfort.

The true secret behind our handcrafted furniture lies in the details. Turn one of our pieces upside down and you’ll see: nothing is left to chance. We care for every detail, even the invisible ones, with precision, because in craftsmanship, everything contributes to the final result for superior quality work.

Domitilla: tailored elegance

The Domitilla armchair perfectly embodies our approach to fine handcrafted furniture. With volumes, graceful shapes, and a refined cover that enhances both comfort and style, it brings timeless elegance to any room.

The carpentry workshop: the tactile beauty of wood

In our carpentry workshop, we carefully select the wood we use. We evaluate the grain, colour; feel and scent to offer you only handcrafted solid wood furniture that will stand the test of time. We cut, sand and finish every structure with passion and expertise.

Our handcrafted wooden furniture is finished using water-based paints, highlighting the natural grain of the wood while respecting the environment. We design each piece to bring a sense of harmony and nature into your space.

Vivi armchair: the light strength of wood

With its solid Canaletto walnut frame, the Vivi armchair expresses the duality of strength and lightness. The wood, expertly crafted, seems to float, balancing elegance and resilience. Its visible grain tells a story of time and care, while the sculpted armrests reflect harmony and proportion.

By choosing our furniture, you are choosing to live differently: more consciously, more sustainably and more humanely.

Innovation and research: the future of handcrafted furniture

For us, craftsmanship coexists with innovation, whether in materials, processes, or ethical choices. Our workshops are spaces where past and future are in constant dialogue, giving life to unique pieces with timeless beauty.

Some of our furniture blends retro charm with a modern twist, while other pieces embrace a contemporary aesthetic that is the result of skilled craftsmanship.

Our design process is constantly evolving, supported by advanced digital tools that enable millimetre-perfect precision and bespoke customisation, while retaining the human essence of true artisanship.

Forty Two: design that looks beyond

The Forty Two chair is an icon of new artisan design. Its sculptural silhouette and Canaletto walnut frame define a refined, timeless style. With its elegant lines and conscious design, this piece has an Italian style with a subtle retro soul.

Craftsmanship as a way of life

In a fast-paced world, Made in Italy handcrafted furniture invites us to slow down and choose with intention. Every piece is not just a functional object. It is a story, a tribute to beauty, and a meaningful relationship with materials.

Choosing Tosconova means embracing a way of life where form and meaning come together, and where beauty is born from skilled hands and thoughtful choices. Visit our showroom and start your next interior project with us.
