CRAFTSMANSHIP

BRASS CRAFTING MASTER WITH VISION AND EXPERTISE

Since the dawn of humanity, art and the desire to embellish anything have always been present in our daily lives. It is intrinsic to human beings to continually strive to do more and better with their hands. History shows us this through artefacts such as cave paintings, inventions such as the wheel or through the beautiful sculptures that artisans created in Classical Antiquity as a way of embodying the beauty of the gods they worshipped. Portugal, with its centuries-old heritage, is a treasure trove of craftsmanship that has left an indelible mark on art, culture, and commerce. Craftsmanship, exemplified through unique creations, transcends time and reflects the heart and soul of the sea nation. In the lighting sector, many artisans have left their mark with opulent and unique lamps, such as those on display in the halls of the Palace of Versailles.

Driven By a Pionner Spirit Since 1978

Castro, with its 45 years of experience, is also part of this story yet to be written about the art of craftsmanship. Through the expertise of specialised artisans combined with the brilliant minds of a team of designers, the brand is distinguished by its innovative capacity and its constant quest to offer its partners high-quality lighting and furniture, with a design of excellence that meets and exceeds the expectations of its consumers. Through masterpieces that draw inspiration from the most traditional elements, from classic beauty with a twist of a modern tone, to the natural and organic elements that surround us, the brand shows a streak of courage, emphasising its distinctive and unique position in the elegant world of interior design.
