Three generations of makers.
One workshop in Tirana.
Lion Furniture started in 1997 as a small workshop on the outskirts of Tirana. Today we work from an 800 square-metre atelier with twelve makers — some of them children of our first hires. Every sofa passes through six hands before it leaves on a truck: the carpenter, the upholsterer, the seamstress, the assembler, the inspector, and the driver.
Our philosophy is simple: furniture should last. We use kiln-dried pine, high-density foam, and Italian elastic webbing — materials that don't sag after two years and don't need replacing after five. Every sofa carries a five-year warranty on its frame and cushioning system, and we repair and re-upholster long after that.
Hand work means no two sofas leave the atelier exactly alike. That's a feature, not a flaw. When your piece arrives, you're getting work that exists for you — built to your dimensions, in your fabric, with the time we put into it.
