Founded in the Veneto region of Italy in 1884, for nearly a century Dal Vera was known for producing extensive collections of finely crafted living and dining room furniture. During the peak of mid-century Italian modernism, Flam Sansoni served as principal designer for most of Dal Vera’s output throughout the 1950s to 1970s. Sansoni was integral in developing the company’s post-War aesthetic and characteristic use of materials, in the Bohemian Riviera style.
