Passion for the home since 1930

Starting from a small artisan workshop in the heart of Bologna, Umberto Mascagni managed to revolutionize the idea of ​​the picture frame thanks to the intuition of a new product, the iconic Lumaghèn (Snail). Consisting only of a metal base and a pair of glasses, the new frame places the image at the center of everything, freeing it from the usual frame to give it relevance through the transparency of the glass alone. Umberto's inventiveness and tenacity were rewarded in a few years, so much so that Mascagni became the leading manufacturer of photo frames in Europe in the 1960s, under the care of his son Mario and his wife Nella. The company, now directed by Michele Mascagni, has transformed into a modern reality with a strong propensity for innovation. It makes use of the collaboration of internal and external designers and sells all over the world through a capillary network of specialized distributors. Mascagni has its headquarters in Casalecchio di Reno and a large warehouse in Castel San Pietro Terme, from which over 15,000 shipments depart every year for over 4,000 customers worldwide. He exhibits at the major world fairs of the sector: Homi in Milan, Maison&Objet in Paris, Ambiente in Frankfurt.
