2020

Born mid last century as a glass workshop, already in the 60’s,

thanks to the founder Antonio Lupi, became an industrial reality.

The factory occupied 5.000 sqm in Stabbia, a small town in

the province of Florence. Dedicated to the bathroom since

the early days, the antoniolupi production, at that time called

Cristal Lupi Luxor, immediately distinguished itself on the Italian

and International market for the quality and attention to detail

as well as its tailor-made production. At that time, Antonio had

understood what the secret was of a product “made in Italy”:

industrial dimensions to address growing markets, highly accurate

artisan workmanship, highly qualified experts as well as another

successful feature: orders shipped with speed, precision and

accuracy...in conclusion the basics that could be defined as the

company’s DNA.

During the second half of the 80’s the children of Antonio join

the company: Andrea, Nello, Patrizia and Sergio. A decisive

turning point towards design and collaboration with prestigious

architects, designers as well as with young designers that rush

to participate in contests organized by the company in hopes to

see their ideas carried out. This is how innovative collections and

icon pieces anticipate the trends of the bathroom converting it

into a wellness area in the center of a modern home. The artistic

world opens up and the “vascabarca” is designed, the production

is enriched with mats, and furnishings, antoniolupi showrooms

begin to open around the globe after the first in Milan. A collection

of fireplaces is launched and the bathroom becomes the heart of

the home.
