Gessato is a proud Billiani US distributor. Founded in 1911 as a family-owned and run company, Billiani initially produced only wood chairs using traditional crafting methods. In the 1990s, Luigi Billiani along with his wife Veronik Romanutti introduced design into the brand’s manufacturing approach, creating the brand as it is known today. The company collaborates with award-winning Italian and international designers to produce high-end furniture for residential spaces and contract projects. Every product is expertly crafted in Italy by master artisans who each complete one step of the manufacturing process.
