Ferlea was founded in 1959 by Milvo Benini, and started its activity producing complementary and hallway furnishings. In 1961 production of small, mainly classic-styled upholstered furnishings began. In 1980 as a result of guessing market trends and needs, an important change took place. Production shifted from classic to modern resulting in a product of innovative taste characterised by the use of special materials and attention to details.
This new chain of events encouraged Milvo Benini to make use of a team of professionals under the artistic direction of Gabriella Zecca, with a view to giving the Ferlea style new character and greater individuality.
