90 anni 'in style'
First after the war. The manufacturing production of the province of Pistoia is distinguished by vitality and innovation. In the districts of Quarrata, Agliana and Montale, groups of artisans stubbornly join together to reconstitute small companies specializing in weaving and furniture craftsmanship. In the early years of the fascist period the new activities began to have a real productive growth. Thanks to the job opportunities that emerge, a process of urbanization of rural populations takes place. Second after the war. With the integration of small production centres, poles specialized in the production and trade of furniture and furnishing objects were born. It is precisely those furniture factories, the first sketches of specialized industries, that represent the common thread that unites Quarrata, Agliana and Montale and form a link with Prato in a continuum of houses, workshops, factories, warehouses, warehouses, intersected by fields and living spaces. In this context, the Mantellassi industry, founded on 8th April 1926 by a talented upholsterer, Macario Mantellassi, his son Remo and his wife, Elisa, was born in Quarrata, a small village whose inhabitants went from being peasants to being artisans. At first it helped to finance the enterprise and then to guide its destiny. Elisa is not only one of the many examples of ante litteram women-managers, often forgotten or disowned by the Italian economic and social historiography of those times. She is also a fine example of the importance that women have had and continue to have in the management and success of the Mantellassi 1926 industry, from its origins to the present day.
