What you’ll find

What Fratelli Levaggi is known for

Fratelli Levaggi builds the Chiavarina, the light bentwood-and-cane chair invented in Chiavari in the early 1800s, shaping cherry frames and hand-weaving rush seats by hand. The family workshop makes the classic Campanino and its variants to order, supplying theatres, palaces and collectors.
