Making Craft Your Own
Delve into our world with a personal consultation led by a dedicated member of our team. Discover our makers and commission something truly unique made just for you. Explore our carefully curated range of made to order furniture, lighting, ceramics, glassware, textiles, and baskets or commission a completely bespoke piece – from a dream table for your dining room to a thoughtful wedding gift. We offer an immersive experience that allows you to explore the work and materials of our key makers and understand the possibilities of commissioning craft.
Step 1: Book a consultation
Make an appointment with our Sales Manager to understand the possibilities of commissioning a custom-made or bespoke piece. The journey begins at our beautiful Mayfair showroom where you can explore the material samples and possibilities of our different makers, whilst being guided through by an expert. Virtual appointments are also possible should that be a preference. Spanning lighting, furniture, tableware, decorative accessories, artworks and utility - we provide the building blocks to create one-off pieces for all aspects of the home. We will share with you the different options for size, colour, or finish to make it your own. What you choose is up to you, but we are here to make the experience simple, memorable and enjoyable.
Step 2: Defining The Brief
We very much enjoy seeing an inspiration image or reference to help bring an idea to life, especially for bespoke commissions. You might have torn a page out of a magazine or created your own Pinterest board, we encourage you to bring anything you have no matter how small. From this we can suggest a maker, a material or a process which best suits you and your style, and begin to define a creative brief. All of your decisions and ideas will be collated into a digital visual representation, which documents the whole journey and one that will be referenced and updated throughout.
Step 3: The Making & Delivery Process
Once the bespoke brief or custom-order is confirmed, we take a 50% deposit and production begins. We will keep you fully informed of your order and manage it right through to delivery. For certain bespoke commissions there may also be the opportunity to visit the maker’s studio or arrange a virtual appointment to see aspects of the piece being made - providing a real and personal window into the making of your unique item. Once complete, your item will be delivered to your preferred address within the agreed time frame and on budget. For gifts, we take great pride in beautifully packing each and every item.
Step 4: Become A Craft Patron
By commissioning from us and our makers, you will become a craft patron; helping us to protect and grow British craft. Thank you. If you wish to become more actively involved please let us know by emailing [email protected]
