Bespoke

The freedom
to create

Create With Us

Our bespoke work often begins with a single reference point - an antique, an image, a drawing or simply a conversation.

Drawing on our knowledge of historic furniture and contemporary interiors, we guide you through each decision, interpreting and refining your ideas from drawing to finish. The result is an individual piece, made for you and perfectly considered for its setting.

We create single pieces for private interiors and collaborate with designers on larger residential and hospitality projects.

Selected bespoke creations

Faithfully recreated from a photograph, drawing or original piece

Each commission begins with a starting point - an image, a reference, an original piece or simply a conversation. Here, we show the inspiration alongside the piece we created, faithfully interpreted and realised by our master craftsmen.

Parcel-Gilt & Polychrome Demi-Lune Console

One original, recreated as a pair

From Sotheby's catalogue photographs alone, we recreated the original as a pair, adapting the proportions to the client's required dimensions.

Canapé à Confidents

Recreated without original dimensions

Working from a museum reference photograph without dimensions, we recreated the canapé to the client's required length, carefully interpreting its original proportions and carving.

Gilt Wood Lanterns
