The Dani and Soldani Cabinet Makers and Wood Workers Factory is a historic factory building at 484 Worcester Street in Southbridge, Massachusetts. The simple brick building was built about 1914 for the Optical Lens Company, a short-lived business apparently seeking to capitalize on the success of the nearby American Optical Company. In 1926 the building was purchased by Eugenio Dani and Giovanni Soldani, who had started a cabinet-making business at their home on Elm Street. Their workshop was the first major Italian-originated business in Southbridge, and continues to occupy the premises today.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
