Meet Our President
Dear Fellow World Traveler,
Our treasures want a chance to blossom in your very own home! Our annual Garden and Home Décor season is chock-full of replica antiques and one-of-a-kind objets d'art we've discovered just for you! And you can pride yourself on being "unique", because 95% of our products can be found only at Design Toscano!
Our founders, Michael and Marilyn Stopka, created Design Toscano in 1990, inspired by the beauty and history of Europe. While on a trip to Paris, the Stopkas first saw the marvelous carvings of gargoyles and water spouts at Notre Dame Cathedral. Inspired by the mystery of these pieces, they decided to introduce the world of Medieval gargoyles to America in 1993.
Since then, our product line has grown to include other period pieces from all around the world. Our classic Greek & Roman, Egyptian, Asian, Exotic and Tropical style masterpieces, as well as new exclusive designs, have become customer favorites through the years. Explore our extensive collection of water fountains, outdoor furniture and statuary to suit your garden and patio décor. While our reproductions of fine European furniture, Tiffany-style stained glass windows, creative home accents and framed wall art will beautify your home.
Expect the unexpected from Design Toscano and enjoy this delightful season!
Michael and Marilyn Stopka
