LISPI FORGE
The Lispi family has been involved in the art of forging
iron since 1920, with four generations of committed to the craft:
this storied and exceptional knowledge has, over time, found
its specialism in the production of wrought iron four-poster
beds. Now, the value of design is added to these unique pieces
of furniture, with an emphasis on concept and the needs of
contemporary living.
WHERE
Since its establishment, the forge has been in Città della
Pieve, in Umbria: a place with Etruscan-Roman roots and a
supreme tradition in ironworking.
Lispi beds are made of the highest quality iron, chosen with zero
impurities, which is then wholly handcrafted, with fascinating
processes and steps.
LISPI AND DESIGN
In 2021 Lispi brought in a young designer as artistic
director, Mario Scairato, and with him – and the other involved
designers – embarked on a process of evolution. A choice
dictated by the desire to apply the experience and high level
of craftsmanship of the forge to ranges of beds intended for
contemporary living. A journey of growth in the name of research
and fine workmanship, commitment, and quality.
Mario Scairato is the architect of the revamped Lispi forge.
He is responsible for the catalogue, choosing the designers to
be entrusted with the projects and marketing, assisted by a team
of specialised associates. The Lispi brand identity is curated and
designed by Federica Marziale Iadevaia (This is Isola).
THE BEDS
The four-poster bed is a piece of furniture that is both
functional and highly aesthetic. A prominent presence in the
sleeping area, thanks to its original shape and bold character.
Lispi wrought iron beds are the result of a happy and harmonious
encounter between good design and high craftsmanship: an
original approach that gives life to furniture with attention to
functional and aesthetic details.
