Pali's history, to which four generations of the Pali family have contributed, spans nearly a century. During this time the company underwent epochal changes. From traditional handcrafted methods, they transitioned to the utilization of advanced technologies.
From the first workshop in the shed of the family home, to buildings in the garden, then shops built on adjacent parcels of land; until 1962, when valuable experience gained from the production of chairs enabled the company to make a smooth transition to production of cribs and complementary bedroom furniture. Their innovative capability, and positive and dynamic vision are family characteristics that derive from the will and commitment to learn and improve using care and courage.
Their company spirit owes much to Ermenegildo Pali, the founder who started manufacturing chairs in his kitchen. Just a few a day, he made them well using the utmost care. Everything has changed in production methods, demand, models and taste. But one thing still remains: love for a finely crafted product made with great care.
