Cesar was founded by Vittorio Cester, who in 1969 transformed his furniture workshop into a modern furniture factory, which was then called Cesar Arredamenti. Cester’s original workshop was nestled in the northern Italian countryside of Pramaggiore, where the heart of the company’s main operations has remained. Cesar was founded as a family company and remains so today. It is currently under the leadership of two of the children of Vittorio – Gina and Dante Cester – who began working with their father in the 1980’s.
