Diego Zanchettin named his brand after the Latin word for the watercourse that Venetian nobles once travelled to reach their summer residences from the city. It is a precise choice — not decorative nostalgia, but a statement about where the work comes from. Medulum is built on forty years of experience accumulated by the Zanchettin carpentry workshop in Meolo, a town in the Venetian hinterland where wood has been worked seriously for generations. Founded in 2017, the brand oversees every phase of production in-house, from design through to the final piece , working alongside architects and independent designers to translate traditional woodworking into a language that has no interest in looking traditional. The results are objects that read as contemporary without trying to erase where they came from.
Medulum furniture draws its references from art history, geology, and architecture — not from trend cycles. Prospecto references the perspective drawings of Filippo Brunelleschi, using inlaid brass lines to create a three-dimensional optical effect across solid wood surfaces. The Basalto collection takes its geometry from the columnar formations that appear when lava cools rapidly — pillar-like slats in lacquered lime set on solid wood bases, finished in black to maximise the visual contrast. The Cheba series, inspired by the structure of birdcages, runs across coffee tables and bookcases with a lightness of frame that wood alone rarely achieves. Arcate pulls from classical arch architecture — seven drawers in shaped milled solid wood on a curved veneered plywood structure, selected for the ADI Design Index. These are not arbitrary references: each collection has a legible idea behind it, and that idea is visible in the finished object.
The catalogue covers a broad range of interior categories, always anchored in wood and complemented by brass, glass, and painted metal. Current product categories include:
Finishes across the range include Canaletto walnut, national walnut, oak, lacquered versions in multiple colours, and satin brass hardware details. Most pieces can be commissioned in custom finishes, and sizing variants are available on request through authorised retailers.
As an official partner of the brand, Vinciguerra Shop carries the complete Medulum collection with international shipping — one of the more reliable ways to access the full range outside Italy. Medulum furniture sale availability varies by retailer and season, but the brand is stocked across a number of European design platforms where outlet and clearance pieces occasionally appear alongside current production. Medulum prices sit in the upper-mid segment of the Italian design market — consistent with hand-finished, workshop-produced furniture rather than industrial manufacture. The production philosophy focused on excellence, meticulous material selection, and attention to detail is reflected in how the pieces hold up over time: the wood constructions are built to be maintained and repaired, not replaced. For buyers approaching the brand for the first time, the sideboard and bookcase categories offer the clearest entry point into the Medulum aesthetic at a range of price points.
