The Parlour Chair frame is fabricated from solid European Beech with Howard and Son style turned legs in Mahogany. With a luxurious feather and down filled cushion to compliment the period style, the Parlour exudes comfort.

This example is upholstered in Orchid Birds, a Studio G fabric from Clarke & Clarke with a choice of 6 colourways. However, you can choose your own fabric to suit your interior style.

This classically inspired chair is fully hand sprung using traditional techniques. It has natural hair and fibre over a hand tied coil spring construction so it’s part of our heirloom collection. It comes complete with a deep buttoned diamond back and three buttons in each arm.

The Parlour Chair, inspired by Howard & Sons furniture designs, would have been found in the finest English houses in the late 19th Century. It is a versatile and timeless fireside, sitting room or as its name suggests a parlour chair. A contemporary heirloom, with a timeless quality which can be passed down the generations.

Seeing a design realised is just a wonderful experience.

We love working with local interior designers and clients who are going for a whole new interior look.

In most living rooms the sofa takes centre stage. I think you'll agree this one really should take the lime light!!

It makes us so sad when we see posts on social media saying "I bought this sofa online it just isn't right for us", or we get a phone call asking if we can fix a new sofa that has sunk way too prematurely or just isn't comfortable.

We understand that people have to budget on what they spend on furniture. We know that some furniture is very trendy and so will go out of fashion. We know that you get whet you pay for, and we also get that credit offered by high street firms really helps you get the sofa you have had your eye on.

BUT, consider this. Our sofas are made to your design concept, to the highest standard. We believe that they will be with you for years. so work that expenditure out per month.
If you fancy a new colour you can get it recovered.

In an ideal world we'd like to see everyone have fabulously comfortable and well proportioned furniture, plus something well designed and has tip top manufacturing. It doesn't have to cost the earth, and will help save the planet in a small way too.
