From him, the sons inherited a love of antiques and manual labor. So, one of them, despite his advanced age, is still in charge of the paint shop, comes to work every day and not only manages the process, but also rises to the machine when it is necessary to show the master a skillful reception. The company specializes in replicas of antiques, and Provasi achieved unsurpassed heights in this.

Cabinet Roberto reflects all stages of the family path. It is located in the factory premises in the town of Seregno near Milan. Roberto admits that this is a kind of front room. Here he arranges business meetings and sometimes sits over a cup of coffee, looking at antiques albums. "Front" office is fully decorated in the tradition PROVASI. This is, of course, a classic. The walls are decorated with boiserie, the decor is antique in half with signature furniture. The owner says that the interior was formed gradually.

And, oddly enough, abstraction and style Louis XVin which the dresser is made, we got along perfectly with each other. The furniture composition and the sofa in scarlet velvet upholstery are already from collections. PROVASI (for example, the sofa Hector), but the design is inspired by historical patterns. “We have always held onto traditions, because this is a guarantee of quality for which our company is fighting,” says Roberto. - Until now, we all produce in Italy and do not use the services of third countries. Brianza, Meda are historic, landmark places for the Italian furniture business, and our company was at the forefront of the region’s glory. Provoz always focused on hand made. We employ first-class masters. They are almost a family to us, many in a factory all their lives.
