Zanotta Italian Furniture: Iconic Design, Made in Italy

Zanotta is not merely a furniture brand; it is a significant part of the history of Italian design.

Founded in 1954 by Aurelio Zanotta, the company has built its identity through research, experimentation, and collaboration with some of the most prominent Italian and international designers and architects.

Over the decades, Zanotta has created products that have become true design icons, helping to transform the way we perceive the relationship between function, form, materials, and space.

Today, Zanotta’s rich heritage coexists with contemporary research that interprets everyday living through sofas, armchairs, chairs, tables, beds, accessories, and outdoor furniture.

Arredamenti Bertola is an authorized Zanotta retailer, guiding Italian and international clients through the selection, configuration, and supply of Zanotta products, as well as managing delivery and assembly.

Zanotta & Italian Design

Italian manufacturing culture

Zanotta’s "Made in Italy" label is not merely a geographical indication. It is the result of a production culture in which designers, technicians, specialized firms, and manufacturing expertise all work together.

Creating a design product requires, in fact, a deep knowledge of materials, precision in construction, manufacturing experience, and the ability to transform a design concept into an object built to last.

This is one of the key aspects Arredamenti Bertola emphasizes in its relationships with clients: going beyond simply showcasing a product to help them understand its features, materials, finishes, and potential applications within their project.

F.A.Q.

Q: Is the Sacco armchair an original Zanotta product?
- A: Yes. Sacco is one of Zanotta’s most iconic, long-standing products, designed by Gatti, Paolini, and Teodoro. Its unstructured form revolutionized the traditional concept of the armchair.

Q: Why are some Zanotta products exhibited in museums?
- A: Because some Zanotta projects have played a significant role in the evolution of design culture. Their importance extends beyond furniture to the history of design and industrial innovation.

Q: Can I customise Zanotta furniture?
- A: Most Zanotta products and systems can be configured through different dimensions, compositions, materials and finishes. Configuration becomes particularly important for systems and architectural solutions, where the product needs to respond to the specific characteristics of the space. For this reason, Zanotta provides customers with the support of its authorised retailers for design consultancy, configuration and quotations.

Q: Why choose an Italian dealer for an international project?
- A: For an international client, the value of working with an Italian dealer goes beyond purchasing the product. It means working directly with a professional immersed in Italian design culture and familiar with the manufacturers, systems and materials that form the foundation of Made in Italy furniture. Arredamenti Bertola develops projects both in Italy and for international clients, coordinating consultancy, configuration, quotations and, when required, logistics and delivery.

Q: Can I order Zanotta from Italy and have it delivered abroad?
- A: Yes. Arredamenti Bertola offers international shipping and can assess logistics according to the destination and the type of product involved. For more complex projects, such as kitchens, storage systems or complete interiors, transportation, delivery and installation can be considered from the design and quotation stages.

Q: Can Arredamenti Bertola help with the design of a Zanotta interior?
- Yes. This is one of the defining aspects of our approach. We do not consider Zanotta simply as a collection of products, but as part of an interior design project. We can therefore work on spatial layouts, proportions, materials, finishes and the relationship between Zanotta pieces and the other elements of the interior. The goal is to create a coherent environment in which every element contributes to the overall result.
