Good questions

A little clarity.
Before we begin.

Advice from our workshop.
Every piece is different.

Ask us about your piece
Do you work nationwide?

Yes. We regularly work with clients across the UK. For projects further afield, collection, delivery and installation logistics simply need to be included in the quotation.

What affects the cost of bespoke furniture?

Bespoke furniture is made to order, so the final cost varies according to the design, materials and level of detail.

  • Size: larger pieces require more materials, fabric and labour.
  • Fabric choice: prices range from practical upholstery fabrics to premium designer materials.
  • Detailing: deep buttoning, piping, pleating, fluting and hand-studded finishes increase labour time.
  • Cushion fillings: foam, feather, fibre and specialist fillings have different costs and comfort characteristics.
  • Customer's Own Material: suitability, pattern repeats and wastage can affect the manufacturing process.
  • Delivery and installation: costs depend on size, access, location and on-site installation requirements.

Once we understand your specification, we can explain the options and prepare a more accurate quotation.

Can you make furniture to my own design?

Yes. Bespoke upholstered furniture is one of our specialities. We regularly work from client sketches, inspiration images, architect drawings and interior designer concepts.

Projects can include statement chairs, banquette seating, bespoke sofas and complete commercial seating installations.
