OUR COMPANY

It was founded in 1978 under the brand name "Arti e Mestieri" by Ambrogio Pirondini. In collaboration with his brother Giovanni, who studied architecture at the Polytechnic University of Milan, after initially producing wooden items (boxes, containers, etc.) for local food companies, Arti & Mestieri expanded to the national and international markets under the brand name "Pirondini Italia," offering home furnishings and accessories. To create these new products, the company collaborated with numerous designers and artists, renowned both in Italy and abroad, including Riccardo Dalisi, Emilio Tadini, Andrea Branzi, Luca Scacchetti, Emanuele Luzzati, and others. The company is currently particularly focused on the production of table and wall clocks and cuckoo clocks.
