Based in Long Eaton, the historic home of British upholstery, our makers have built a reputation for producing furniture for some of the UK's most respected retailers. Combining traditional craftsmanship with precision machinery, they create beautifully upholstered sofa that are made to stand the test of time.

Working closely alongside our team throughout the design and development process, our partners have been manufacturing upholstered furniture for more than 20 years, bringing decades of specialist knowledge to every piece they create.

Their cushion constructions have been carefully developed and refined through years of prototyping, testing and real-world use to achieve the optimum balance of comfort and durability.

Responsibly sourced FSC-certified timber, high-quality fillings and beautiful fabrics are combined with locally sourced components wherever possible, supporting the region's long-standing furniture-making heritage.

Let’s look at this in further detail.

Collaborative craftsmanship: Woodworking in their DNA

Working alongside ourselves and an acclaimed roster of international design studios, our partners act as a dynamic creative hub. From classic Scandinavian minimalism to bold contemporary forms into beautifully crafted realities. This open, highly collaborative environment allows our team and other designers to problem-solve together directly on the factory floor, merging fresh design concepts with real-world capabilities.

Partnering with people who literally have woodworking in their DNA makes the entire journey from a raw sketch to a finished piece smooth, honest, and incredibly dependable. Together with their wider network of design partners, we continue to elevate the standard of furniture production, ensuring every shared project is built to inspire and endure.

Commitment to people: Supporting the hands that craft our furniture

What we really love about our partners is how genuinely they look out for their team. They back up their ethical values with strict Sedex SMETA audits, a globally recognised framework that rigorously assesses labor rights, health, safety, and environmental standards. This ensures the workshop is always a safe, equitable, and supportive place.

It’s incredibly refreshing to work with people who treat their craftspeople with the exact same dedication and care as they put into the furniture itself.

Dedication to the planet: Championing responsible forestry together

Protecting the planet is central to our shared ethos. That’s why we collaborate so closely with our manufacturing partners to source strictly FSC®-certified oak and walnut. The Forest Stewardship Council guarantees this timber is harvested responsibly, preserving biodiversity and preventing deforestation.

Together, we ensure every piece of furniture we create is deeply rooted in environmental responsibility.
