In the aftermath of World War II, 11 year old Francesco Molon of Venice, Italy assisted his father in woodworking when he was unable to continue the work, supporting his whole family. These early experiences instilled in him a passion and drive that led him to start his own eponymously named company in 1966 alongside his wife, Giuliana, creating luxurious furniture efficiently and for individual clients, rather than mass-producing. By 1970 he had numerous clients in Germany, Switzerland, France, and Saudi Arabia, breaking into the United States market a decade later. By the late 1980s his sons Roberto and Christian had taken over the company, although Francesco remained as a figurehead, and together they expanded their empire to include clients in the Soviet Union and Southeast Asia. Today, Francesco Molon boasts a team of over 200 individual craftsmen in two large factories, dedicated to the highest production standards and each putting finishing touches on pieces, utilizing the genius of the assembly line without sacrificing quality or personal style.
Condition
Commensurate with age.
