All of our pieces are original, well travelled in time and space, sometimes from hand to hand more than once. As we find the ensuing patina part of the charm, we strive to bring the objects back to a new cycle of use as gently as possible making only minor, non intrusive alterations such as for instance replacing electric components where needed in lighting, or reupholstering a chair when the fabric is too frayed but the underlying structure beautiful. Please never hesitate to ask if you’d like to know more!
