ABOUT

Merlino is the brainchild of Enzo Rigamonti and Mirella Isella, who in the early 1990s began a small artisanal production of children's toys inspired by the principles of environmental sustainability and good design.

One thing leads to another, and after the first small local projects, the business idea begins to take shape and substance by increasing more and more production and logistical capacities while still holding firm to the principles of sustainability that fueled the first steps into the world of children's design.

Now Merlino is a well-established business that has managed to make the transition to the second generation and expresses itself both on the Italian and international territory.

We can say that we have been specializing in the production of children's furniture for more than 30 years with a range of furniture that can qualify common and reception spaces.

Our mission is to improve the user experience by providing the child with entertaining educational tools based on three fundamental principles: quality, sustainability and craftsmanship.

Merlino's design philosophy is to create quality furniture that stimulates children's creativity and imagination, helping them to grow up in a serene and safe environment.

The proposal therefore contemplates both "classic" furniture and experimental creations providing a wide range of solutions. In addition to the more traditional products that make it possible to set up educational spaces such as tables, chairs or furniture, we have developed products that work on different cognitive areas by stimulating different intelligences in parallel, allowing us to structure varied, fun and entertaining activities.
