🇬🇧 | It Wasn’t a Business. It Was Pure Passion.

🇬🇧 | It Wasn’t a Business. It Was Pure Passion.

Posted by Mario Trebbi on

Clipper WareHouses didn’t start to make money.
It wasn’t a plan. It wasn’t a job.
It was just passion — pure and raw.

It all began in my family’s small workshop,
working side by side with my father,
learning the craft, feeling the wood,
and slowly adding my own twist.

We knew nothing about ecommerce, strategy, or branding.
We just wanted to create something different, real, and ours.

Our first products were the "Originals"
inspired by those yellow round plastic Clipper displays.
We put our heart into every piece…
but after 8 long months, we had sold only 4 units. Four.
That could’ve been the end.


But the passion kept us going.
One day, in the middle of the dust and the noise,
I had a spark.

I imagined the first handcrafted wooden showcase for Clipper lighters.
Custom. Clean. Unique.
Something no one had ever seen before.


From that moment, everything changed.

People started to notice.
They understood we weren’t just making products —
we were building something with soul.

We didn’t rush. We didn’t fake it.
We just kept creating —
and maybe that’s why the whole thing worked.

Today, we ship all across Europe.
We join international expos, work with brands,
and get messages from people who fall in love with our work every single day.


But deep down, we’re still the same:
just me, my father, and a dusty workshop full of dreams and wood.
