What are the most iconic Italian furniture pieces?
Iconic Italian furniture is often recognized for sculptural proportions, clean silhouettes, exceptional upholstery, and a balance of comfort with visual impact. While Garofano does not replicate third-party models, its collection draws from Italian design heritage through refined forms, elevated finishes, and carefully considered material combinations suited to premium residential and hospitality interiors.
An Italian sofa typically emphasizes proportion, low-profile elegance, tailored upholstery, and a strong architectural presence. Beyond appearance, it should offer supportive comfort, durable construction, and materials that age well. Garofano’s Italian-inspired approach focuses on clean lines, refined finishes, cushion comfort options, and a premium look that remains approachable for modern interiors.
Can Garofano furniture be customized?
Garofano offers selective customization, including upholstery selection, finish options, dimensional refinement, dual-material combinations, and cushion firmness variations. All approved specifications must be confirmed in writing before production begins. Customization does not include unrestricted bespoke redesign, replication of third-party models, or structural changes that could affect comfort, durability, or approved build tolerances.
Do you offer private viewings or material samples?
Yes. Garofano offers private viewings and material consultations by appointment only rather than operating a traditional retail showroom. Clients may request fabric swatches, sizing guidance, and a short consultation to support considered decisions. Sample availability, deposits, and shipping requirements may vary depending on the fabric, finish, or piece being reviewed.
How does white-glove delivery work?
Garofano uses white-glove delivery for all deliveries. This includes unpacking, placement, and basic packaging removal by a professional carrier or delivery team selected by Garofano. Clients should confirm doorway, hallway, stairwell, elevator, and building access details in advance, including COI requirements, elevator reservations, protective coverings, and delivery windows.
Who qualifies for the Garofano Trade Program?
Garofano’s Trade Program is available to qualified interior designers, architects, residential developers, professional stagers, and similar industry professionals. Eligible trade members may receive preferential pricing on approved items, excluding delivery, installation, logistics, limited editions, or rush customization. Documentation such as a business license, portfolio, or resale certificate may be required.
Are made-to-order furniture pieces final sale?
Made-to-order and customized items are final sale once production begins. This policy protects the integrity of pieces produced to confirmed specifications, including selected fabrics, finishes, dimensions, material combinations, and cushion preferences. Clients should review all details carefully in writing before approval, including sizing, access constraints, lead times, and finish selections.
What warranty coverage does Garofano provide?
Garofano provides a limited one-year warranty covering manufacturing defects under normal residential use from delivery. Exclusions include normal wear, natural material variation, cushion softening, fabric pilling, sunlight-related color changes, improper cleaning, misuse, accidents, pet damage, commercial use unless agreed in writing, and damage caused by movers or third parties.
