70 YEARS OF DESIGN

Our creative touch

Undoubtedly the distinctive trait in Sambonet's work and design is given by its autonomy in realization, from the concept and the design phase to the production phase, thus giving all products a clear connotation of craftsmanship: 90% of the products are in fact signed by the in-house design center. This has always helped to strengthen the brand identity, making it exclusive and unmistakable in the international panorama.

PESCIERA

Roberto Sambonet

Roberto Sambonet is Sambonet's iconic designer.

He was born in Vercelli in 1924 and studied painting at the Brera Academy in Milan and Architecture at the Polytechnic. After his experience in Sweden and Brazil, he went back to Italy and opened his own studio in Milan, designing steel product lines, achieving international recognition and several awards. Since 1954 he collaborated with the family business, also dealing with graphics and communication. From 1956 to 1960 he was the Art Director of the magazine Zodiac, and in the sixties he became a consultant for La Rinascente.

His Pesciera (Fish kettle) won the Compasso d'Oro in 1970 and currently in the collection at the MoMA in New York.
