Honestly, there's nothing we like more than seeing and hearing the reaction to someone sitting in one of our chairs or sofas for the first time. So many 'ooohhhhs' and 'ahhhhhs' which are usually followed by, 'can you just leave me here...'
We've really taken our time to get every detail perfect and a lifetime of developing furniture to reach the point where we felt ready to create this wonderful range.
Each piece is hand made in the UK using only 100% natural materials by a team that have been making luxury sofas and armchairs for over 40 years. Each piece is built on a hand made frame using English Beech, a very durable hardwood, that has traditionally been used in upholstery for its stability and strength.
Apart from setting out to create the most comfortable chairs and sofas in the world we wanted to create a range that we could be proud to say was made without foam or similar man-made materials.
I'D LIKE TO KNOW SOME MOREAlex, our founder, started working with the craftsmen that make the Song Armchairs, Sofas and Ottomans 23 years ago. So while that makes him feel very old indeed, it's great to be able to have such a long history of working together.
They began working together when he was the Creative Director of the Conran Shop. It was here he designed a sofa called 'Winslow' which rapidly became their best selling sofa and remained in the top spot for over 20 years. Alex and his family still has one of the first ever Winslow's made - so yes, we can be sure they build sofas that last for well over 20 years!
