Paolo Foglizzo
TOP QUALITY LEATHER
It is no coincidence that Foglizzo collections spell international excellence. With its origins in the great Italian tradition, the company’s
expertise has grown over the decades, since it was created in 1921.
In the 1970s, Foglizzo specialized in antique restoration work, where leather work dating back several centuries had to be reproduced
faithfully from a small sample. It was a real work of art.
DESIGN WORK
In the 2000s, the founder’s grandsons thought it would be a good idea to leverage this expertise among designers and interior architects. Foglizzo is the first firm in the world to position itself on the growth market of custom-made leather.
Leathers that spring from the imagination of designers take shape at the Foglizzo workshop and become reality. They then go
on to adorn private jets, large yachts and luxury stores like Gucci, Fendi and Louis Vuitton. Laser cut, perforated, embossed,
gold inlaid: they propose an almost endless number of ever-renewed ideas to create beautiful effects.
INNOVATION AND ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
The combination of a remarkable sense of innovation, exclusive use of the best skins, 90% of which are from Europe and tanned
in Italy, results in a feel and quality that is second to none. Apart from being waterproof, which is essential, the leather is given a new
Thermo Leather treatment® for PRESTIGE and thanks to special pigments it withstands significant exposure to sunlight and high
temperatures. The nature of leather does not rule out high performance!
