About Maniera
About Maniera
We bring Italian design, craftsmanship and product knowledge to India.
Maniera began with an appreciation for art and well-designed objects. We are drawn to products with a distinctive character, where the care behind the design is evident in the finish. How they feel and hold up to everyday use matters to us.
Today, Maniera exclusively represents Bertolotto in India. Our ambition is to bring together a wider selection of Italian manufacturers.
Our approach
We want to understand what goes into making an object. That means learning about the materials and where they come from, following the manufacturing process, and recognising the skill required to achieve the finished piece. This knowledge informs what we choose to represent.
Customisation matters too. We look for products that give architects freedom to explore and develop their ideas. Working directly with manufacturers, we assess their suitability for Indian conditions and establish where a specification needs to change.

What we do

Product Intelligence
We work directly with manufacturers to understand every aspect of a product, from its materials and construction to its technical specifications. That knowledge allows us to give informed advice on its selection and use.

Curation for India
We select Italian products for their design and craftsmanship, considering both Indian tastes and local conditions. Where a specification needs to change, we work with the manufacturer to adapt it.

Importing & Logistics
We bring 30 years of experience in importing and shipping, getting products from Italy to India as quickly as possible while keeping them safe in transit.

Installation & Support
We arrange installation where needed and provide after-sales service, including fulfilling warranty obligations when required.
