About Pier Luigi Colli : History
The company was founded in Turin in 1850, as a workshop that performed embroidery for the upholstery of armchairs and sofas. The factory collaborated with the company "Martinotti e C.ia manufacturer of furniture", of Giuseppe and then Luigi Martinotti, which since 1831 produced luxury furniture in style and from the end of the century in the most up-to-date Art Nouveau style

On the death of Federico Martinotti, the last male descendant of the family, in the 1920s, his widow handed over the business to Teresa and Maria Colli and the two companies reunited, assuming the name "Colli dal 1831" (with the date referring to the foundation of the Martinotti company). Later Pier Luigi Colli (1895-1968), the younger brother of the two owners, also joined the family business, who had attended courses at the École des arts décoratifs in Paris.

Thanks to close relations in Paris, Pier Luigi Colli imported Lalique glass and Jean Perzel's deco lamps into Turin. The company took care of the preparation of the royal train, built by Fiat Ferroviaria and the technical office, led by Pier Luigi Colli, designed and produced the seats of the great hall of the University of Turin and the furnishings of the Turin headquarters of the Bank of Italy and the prefecture. In addition to furniture, the company produced embroideries for upholstery and curtains, carpets, lamps with Seguso glass, windows and door handles.

The firm also produced works designed by external architects: Gio Ponti (partition walls and the windows of the Vembi headquarters in Turin), Giovanni Gariboldi (furniture for the Richard Ginori showroom in Rome), Carlo Mollino (handrail of the RAI auditorium and windows of the Teatro regio), Domenico Morelli (furniture of the Rai skyscraper); Gabetti and Isola (neo-liberty furnishings of the Stock Exchange)[2] Aldo Morbelli (furnishings of the Fasano jewelery shop in via Roma in Turin).

In the moment of greatest success, branches were opened in Milan (Corso Matteotti) and in Rome (Piazza di Spagna), which remained active until the 1950s. When Pier Luigi Colli died, his daughter Claudia succeeded him and continued the business with high-quality serial production until it closed in the 1980s.

The company archive including photographs, drawings, plans and even documents transferred from the previous Martinotti company is managed by the architect Davide Alaimo. Part of the projects has been deposited in the State Archives of Turin, Pier Luigi Colli fund.

Cancellations and Returns

Last updated: 13th August 2024

Our Terms of sale were designed to treat both Customers and Vendors (including Professional Vendors and Non-Professional Vendors (as defined in the Site Terms)) fairly, in order to make the shopping/selling experience with Vinterior just as exceptional as the items.

To protect our Customers from disappointment or the unexpected, we strongly encourage them to closely inspect item photos, descriptions, and details before purchasing anything on the Site, and then again upon delivery or pickup.

If the Customer is unsure about an item's condition, dimensions, quantity, or description, they can send their questions to the item's Vendor by clicking on Ask the seller on the listing page of the Site.

Customers shall receive the same level of consumer protection on purchases irrespective of whether they are buying from a Professional Vendor or Non-Professional Vendor.

Should you have any questions regarding your transaction, please contact the Vendor in the first instance.

Can I cancel an order?

If a Customer changes their mind or decides for any other reason not to purchase the Goods before they have been dispatched, they can cancel the order on the Site and receive a refund.

The right to cancel does not apply to the following types of goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke, or made-to-order according to the customer's specific requirements. If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.

If the Customer cancels an order after an item has already been marked as dispatched for delivery, the delivery costs are non-refundable.

To cancel the order, the Customer must follow the cancellation procedure on the Site by clicking on Create Cancellation on the order page.

Can I return an item?

All items at Vinterior are special and unique, and we understand that once they are at the Customer's place, they might not fit the space or just don’t feel right. This is why we offer a market-leading 100-day returns policy for purchases from Professional sellers for items under £3000 in value after goods have been received by customers based in the UK and European Union. This means Vinterior customers can return their items for any reason up to 100 days from the day they were received if the item value is less then £3000.

If purchased from an Individual seller or the item value is above £3000, a 14-day return policy applies from the day it was received.

Types of returns and responsibilities

Change of mind return

Consumers can return the goods due to a change of mind. Once a return is requested, the buyer is in charge of shipping the goods back to the seller and should organise it as soon as possible. Shipment costs to and from buyers are non-refundable.

Item not fit for purpose

Acting under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, customers may return faulty Goods that are damaged or the listing on the Site is materially inaccurate, misleading, or misrepresents the Goods. In these cases, the Customer must provide photographic evidence to Vinterior and the Vendor or reject the delivery on arrival.

Damage in transit

Vinterior must be informed of any damage in transit. If Proovia delivered the items, Vinterior will then raise an insurance claim on behalf of the Vendor with the delivery company. If the seller organised a delivery, they would be asked to raise a claim with their courier. Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.

How to request a return

To initiate a return the customer needs to log in to their Vinterior account and click Create a return on the order page. In the return request, the reason for the return must be included along with photos of any damage of the Goods, if faulty.

How you will be refunded?

Once the item is returned to the Vendor in the same condition, the Vendor will confirm receipt of the item, and Vinterior will refund the original payment method.

If an item is returned to the seller damaged or in an unsuitable condition, Vinterior will not be able to process the refund, and the seller may have to send it back (and ask you to cover the delivery costs). All items are inspected on return.

What can't be returned?

As with cancellations, the right to return an item does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the Customer's specific requirements.

Please note that vintage items are not sold as new and are likely to show signs of wear and tear. This is not sufficient grounds for a refund.

Vendors may refuse a return of an item if the Customer has altered it in any way.

Neither Vinterior nor the Vendors are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
