In the 1950s, Felice Riva founded the company M.A.RIVA, a small workshop that mainly manufactured furnishing accessories. Over the years, from a small workshop, Felice Riva has succeeded in combining mass production with supplies for the contract sector, in particular hotels and important private and public projects. Thanks to the enormous experience collected with M.A.RIVA, at the end of the '90s, the son Francesco Riva, who had started his professional growth in his father's company, founded RIVA MOBILI D'ARTE, a company that, faithful to the family tradition and craftsmanship, combines the passion for its art with continuous research, to create timeless, exclusive and high-quality classic furniture collections. In 2010, Rivatelier was born, a new brand dedicated to the contemporary sector. The new shapes and contemporary lines, combined with the use of high-quality materials make all Rivatelier models unique and precious.
In 2024, RIVATELIER presents its new look under the creative and artistic direction of Daniel Christopher, Designer and Creative Director chosen by Cav. Francesco Riva to follow this transformation and evolution.

In the core of this vibrant metropolis, where time seems to rush as rapidly as the wind amongst skyscrapers, resides a sanctuary for those in pursuit of the quintessence of beauty. This haven redefines beauty, morphing it into something more profound; it delves deeper than the superficial, touching the very soul of its explorers. The narrative of this magical locale is entwined with the inherent idea that real beauty lies within the eye of the observer. It is here, within RIVATELIER's confines, that this concept comes alive. Each furnishing, every meticulous detail brought into existence with passion and commitment, serves as a call to beauty—seen as an emotional journey. Here, beauty transcends mere physical appearance; it becomes a voyage inward that guides towards self-realization. RIVATELIER's mission mirrors this understanding: to provide visitors a chance to encircle themselves with furnishings echoing their truest selves, teleporting them to their lives' most cherished and momentous instances. Every item, from the sleek, contemporary silhouettes to the deeply crafted particulars, stems from a creative endeavor transcending mere furniture production. It is a labor of love, homage to the beauty in-herent in the human journey. Hence, with each line drawn, each step towards creation, RIVATELIER strives to keep this ethos alive—infusing each element with the highest dedication and focus so that every product that departs its doors infuses beauty and profound emotion into the world.
