From Nature To Home: 100+6 Years, 100+6 Stories
For 106 years, Riva1920 has turned its woodworking know-how into a vision: solid wood as the backbone, design as the meeting point of passion and tradition.
At Salone del Mobile.Milano 2026, we will unveil the new collection and a special anniversary project, “100+6”, which interprets the theme From Nature to Home and puts the stories of the materials that define us at its centre.
21–26 April 2026

From Nature: 6 Woods
“100+6” starts from the material: six wood types with different stories and textures, chosen to represent the Riva1920 identity. Six woods, six limited-edition reinterpretations of six best sellers, each dedicated to a signature wood:
• Reclaimed woods: Kauri, Briccole, Cedar, Barrique
• Reforestation woods: Oak and Walnut
It is our way of showing how true, natural solid wood becomes furniture: material, craftsmanship, longevity.
To Home: 100 Pieces of Furniture
100 becomes a complete overview: one hundred curated pieces that tell the best of Riva1920 and come to life through the six wood types in a brand-new, fully staged catalogue. A journey to see each piece in context—between elegance, natural authenticity and exclusivity—alongside the new collection.
Kauri: Exclusivity Made into Furnishing
A millennia-old wood from New Zealand, Kauri can be up to 50,000 years old: a reclaimed material sourced from trunks that fell naturally following cataclysmic events.
Its most iconic expression is the Kauri Piano Antico table, designed by Renzo & Matteo Piano—leading figures in the history of contemporary architecture—where the strength of the solid-wood top converses with a tubular-section iron base that enhances its aesthetic value.
To mark its 20th anniversary, it will be presented in the limited “100+6” edition at Salone del Mobile.Milano.
Oak: a Timeless Material, Reinterpreted with a Contemporary Spirit
Timeless, durable, and naturally elegant, oak has always been a material that speaks through its grain and lasting beauty. Carefully selected by Riva1920 from sustainably managed forests in Eastern Europe and finished by hand with natural waxes, it becomes the essence of Vela Sideboard.
Designed by the Riva family under the name Authentic Design, this sideboard combines solid wood and blockboard with vertically worked doors and drawer fronts that create a modern geometric rhythm, enriched by drawers assembled with traditional dovetail joints.
A refined expression of Italian cabinetmaking, Vela Sideboard will be presented in the limited “100+6” edition at Salone del Mobile.Milano 2026.
Barrique: Wine Passion, Contemporary Form
Barrique wood comes from barrels recovered from the San Patrignano community and from large 10,000-litre casks used to produce Barolo—ready for a third life as design furniture. A material that retains the warmth of winemaking tradition and artisanal passion, celebrating the meeting of nature, craftsmanship, and sustainable design.
From this reclaimed material takes shape Bottea, an oak stool made from barrique staves, with a seat in glued slats featuring a curved section for natural comfort, and a structure with dovetail joints. Signed by master architect Mario Botta, it interprets the soul of the material through pure geometric forms, creating an object that is essential and functional.
Discover Bottea in the limited “100+6” edition at Salone del Mobile.Milano.
Lebanon Cedar: Material with the Scent of Design
The fragrant trunks of Lebanon Cedar are recovered by Riva1920 following planned felling operations, preventing this precious material from being discarded and transforming it into value. Naturally moth-resistant and highly resistant to humidity, the wood is then crafted using advanced technologies and 5- and 6-axis CNC machinery.
It is from this timber that Molletta takes shape: a bench in solid fragrant cedar, carved from single blocks, with a sculptural design inspired by Pop art’s playful use of scale. Conceived by Baldessari and Baldessari, it is now one of the most beloved pieces in the collection — a work that is as simple as it is brilliant.
Discover Molletta in the limited-edition “100+6” version at Salone del Mobile.Milano.
Briccola: The Memory of the Lagoon, Turned into Design
Briccole are the iconic oak mooring posts of the Venice Lagoon, periodically replaced and naturally shaped by the combined action of the marine shipworm, salt, and the sea. Riva1920 reclaims them and crafts them with artisanal care, transforming them into design furnishings with an unmistakable aesthetic.
From a series of solid Briccola wood posts paired with a polished steel or glass top, Venice is born: a project designed by Claudio Bellini, who translated material into a poetic gesture—the posts of the console reflecting in the top, just as they once reflected in the sea.
