What Prandina does

Prandina is an Italian lighting manufacturer founded in 1982, specializing in handcrafted blown glass fixtures spanning five product categories: suspension (pendant), table, floor, wall, and ceiling lamps. The company combines nearly five decades of artisanal glass craftsmanship with contemporary design, producing collections such as GONG, EQUILIBRE, SANTACHIARA, ZERODIECI, LUISA, and SHUTTLE, with LED and dimmable variants and certifications including CE, UL, and IP20. Distribution operates through a global dealer network of over 200 resellers across 40+ countries, supported by branded showrooms in Milan, Paris, London (Chelsea, via Apeiron Interiors), and partner showrooms in New York.

The business model is project-led and quote-based, with revenue generated from one-time unit sales of lighting fixtures rather than subscriptions or licensing. Customers span residential interiors, hospitality (Myconian Collection, Athens Capital Center Hotel-MGallery), corporate offices (Allianz, BPER Bank, Tyrolit), cultural institutions (Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, La Triennale di Milano), and infrastructure (Fiumicino Airport, Charleroi Airport). GTM combines channel partners with an enterprise project division that supports architects, interior designers, and contractors on custom specifications.

As of June 2026, Prandina has merged into the Lym group, with Lym Srl (€506,666.67 share capital) becoming the operating parent and Prandina operating as a heritage brand ('un marchio Lym'). Orders are scheduled to reopen in September 2026 with deliveries from January 2027. Prandina remains privately held with 11-50 employees and no public revenue disclosure.
