01
Woven metal
Worked under pressure rather than cut away — rolled and pressed until the metal forms its own pattern, with texture becoming part of the form.
Materials & Craft
Materials with character
We are different because of how we pair our materials and specify how they are shaped. This comes from our architectural skew and our eye for detail. We like the rawness of our materials and the industrial nature of where they come from. We elevate them to suit, or even complement, a finer space that communicates a sense of boldness, in personality and design. Our materiality and design are communicated through the pieces themselves, because we embrace the unique.
01 — The material
Metal, timber, leather, silk, jute
Chosen for what they do under light, and for how they behave when
they are worked.
Sheet
Cut from flat stock. Everything after this is a decision about surface.
Jute
Wound by hand over a turned column.
Leather
The one material here that really does soften with use.
02 — Making
Five stages
Metal worked with a jeweller’s precision — pierced, engraved and hammered — with details that reveal themselves up close.
03 — The form
One material, worked several ways
Inspired by jewellery, our metalwork is crafted with an eye for detail, creating depth and texture.
02
Engraved metal
Cut into, not through. The light stays inside the shade and the drawing stays on it.
03
Fluted metal
Parallel channels pressed into the surface. Light runs down them rather than across.
04
Formed metal
Worked under pressure rather than cut away. Rolled and pressed until the metal carries its own pattern, and the texture is the form rather than something added to it.
05
Moulded metal
Cast from a pattern, then finished by hand where the mould lines meet.
06
Leather
Cut, folded and stitched by hand. Supple and tactile, it matures with use — softening where it is handled and deepening in colour where it is held.
04 — The surface
Five finishes. More to specification
These five finishes form the core of the collection and are listed on every product page, making
specification straightforward. They are the finishes we keep as standard — not the limit of what we can make.
Antique Brass
12 pieces
Antique Copper
8 pieces
Brass
6 pieces
Natural
4 pieces
Black
1 piece
What a finish means
Our finishes are applied and worked by hand, allowing the depth, variation and character of the metal to remain visible. No two pieces will be exactly alike — and that is part of the finish.
Caring for the surface
The finish sits on the surface, so it should be cleaned rather than polished. Avoid metal polish, which can be abrasive and remove the finish. A soft, dry cloth is all it needs.
Beyond the five
These five are our standard finishes, but they are not the full palette. For a project, we can work to specification across
further finishes, timbers and leathers. Ask us for samples early — materials can read quite differently in warm and cool light.

Architecture decides how a room is built. Light decides how it feels.
