Porada

Porada is a distinguished Italian furniture brand with deep roots in craftsmanship, founded in 1968 by Luigi Allievi—whose passion for working with solid wood began decades earlier. Renowned for its refined aesthetics and expert woodworking, Porada has grown from a small chair-making workshop into a globally recognized producer of elegant and timeless furnishings.

Now led by Allievi’s sons, the brand continues to honor its artisanal heritage, creating furniture for residential and contract spaces that seamlessly blends functionality with sophistication. Each Porada piece is a testament to the brand’s commitment to quality, detail, and material excellence—especially its signature use of solid woods like canaletta walnut and ash, often combined with metal, marble, or glass for modern appeal. Collections such as Iron, Eighteen, and Nineteen include standout items like the Arena and Argo sofas, the sculptural Pilar MIX tables, and the versatile Mary cabinet. Porada’s designs balance tradition and innovation, with contributions from celebrated designers like Patrick Jouin and Emmanuel Gallina. Above all, Porada’s strength lies in its dedication to timeless elegance, masterful craftsmanship, and a love of wood that informs every creation.
