Luciano Colella is a third-generation master craftsman with a deep passion for art, antiques, and the history embodied in fine furniture. He was born and raised in Polignano a Mare, where he began working with antiques at a young age within his family’s tradition of restoration.

In his early years, he traveled frequently to antique fairs in France and northern Italy sourcing pieces that he would bring back to his hometown, where he also established his first shop, Antichità Colella.

After moving to the United States in 2003, Luciano founded Antichita Colella LLC in 2007. Today, he works with designers, collectors, and private clients, supported by an established workshop where each piece is carefully restored with respect for its character and history.

Focusing on antiques and mid-century furniture, his collection reflects a balance of craftsmanship, authenticity, and timeless design.
