SIPA Wooden Furniture: A Love For Things Made Well

Good things take time, attention to detail, technical know-how, and manual skill. This is something that Italian furniture manufacturer, SIPA, has understood, and embraced, since opening their doors in 1974.


It all starts with the choice of wood. Be it oak, ash, red fir or beech, SIPA sources their wood exclusively from eco-sustainable forests and sawmills with which they hold a firm relationship. Once sourced, SIPA takes the material home to their plant, to be lovingly seasoned, by experts, with patience and care. Prioritising quality over haste, the seasoning process at SIPA takes place naturally and in the best environmental conditions – to get the best result.

The attention to detail and care doesn’t stop there. These values are carried on from the sourcing and seasoning of materials, through to the manufacturing of each and every SIPA product. At the end of it all is a versatile collection of solid wooden furniture, made with artisan passion, in pursuit of beauty and quality, for all living needs and spaces.

SIPA’s production is dedicated to manufacturing high-quality chairs, tables, side-tables, stools, and tops. The range is a family of furniture, composed of simple, timeless, and elegant forms and born out of a great love for the material of wood and continuous research into contemporary residential design.

From its warehouse, borne and based in the Friuli region of northeast Italy, SIPA ships the products of its intricate labour throughout the world. Across Australia and Singapore, SIPA is one of the select few international brands that StylecraftHOME chooses to represent – based on mutual commitment to sustainable practices and a love for things made well.

Ranking high on the list of classic SIPA pieces is the Fold Table. Distinguished by the original shape of its streamlined legs, the Fold Table has a minimalist aesthetic and tactile effect. Made of solid ash throughout, the Fold Table is available in natural, coloured lacquer, and lightly brushed finishes. Recent additions to the SIPA family of furniture – and coming soon to a StylecraftHOME near you – are the SPAN chair and POP chair. True to SIPA’s timeless aesthetic and artisan values, each chair’s every detail has been carefully crafted to give each model its own personality and story to tell.
