Ten out of Ten.
We are very picky. This fuels our drive to challenge the assumptions of design, of manufacturing, and of quality. Because we put so much effort into designing and making a chair, a couch, or a rug so that it is close to perfection, the finished piece is so unique that it cannot be mass-produced. It is a physical artifact of a vision, a journey, and a statement in form. Therefore every creation by Mario & Casa is made in a strictly limited edition of ten and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
The Soul in Every Object
Here, there are no assembly lines, only masters in ateliers. A rug is not “made”; it is composed, like music in warp and weft. A table is not “built”; it's design is pondered over again and again and it is revealed, as the grain surrenders its hidden landscape to a master carpenter's tools.
Each Mario & Casa rug, each chair, each table is handcrafted with heritage techniques and ethically sourced, noble materials: New Zealand wool that whispers underfoot, hand‑spun silk that shimmers like memory, brass and silver that catch the light of intention, and ash and birch shaped by patient hands.
By choosing Mario & Casa, you rekindle a human connection. You partner with master artisans who pour their lineage into every creation. You invite into your space not a mass‑market commodity, but a rare dialogue between vision and craft, form and feeling.
