Couture bespoke furniture focuses and is tailored for those who require specific dimensions or indeed for the discerning and elitist individual in pursuit of a unique, unparalleled, creative and exclusive level of stylisation and design ethos. We have presented here a selection of fine collectable and rare individual pieces of furniture Couture Unique furniture collection.
Bespoke designer furniture pieces are either of limited production or indeed made to a client’s specific requirements, involving alteration to the standard specifications of the collections, such as for example finishes, materials and or dimensions and equally relates to pieces of furniture created exclusively with an specific interior space or scheme in mind.
The ‘couture’ element to these pieces takes into consideration a unique use and or combination of materials specific to the piece of furniture, be it an armchair, cabinet, console table or dining table, to name a few. For example, the art 501 dining table has an sculptural design ethos, in keeping with the essence of a ’gallery’ and or a ’conversational piece’, designed with a stylised and exaggerated cabriole leg cross referencing an 18th C cabriole leg supporting a wonderfully unusual and exceptional top made from a ‘breathtaking’ slice of tree not altered in its organic, fluid and naturalistic shape and texture. The ‘couture’ essence is further emphasised by the use of contrasting materials, the ‘jewel’ like silver metal leaf on the legs is in ‘theatrical’ contrast with the naturalistic and organic elements and essence of the ’sliced’ and pure wood top.
A further fine example is the SA bronze armchair, an sculptural piece of furniture made out of cast bronze with armrests sculptured as mythical wings and naturalistic and crisp front claw and ball feet. An elitist and indeed academic piece of furniture cross referencing the Neoclassical period in relation to the stylised back, splayed back legs and the design references to mythological creatures (in the prevailing fashion in early 19th C).
Pieces of such profile and stylisation provide a grand evocative sense and feeling of the period. Such pieces reaffirm the ‘self importance’ of their profile and design ethos and essence.
These pieces are exclusively made to order and in most cases may be altered to suit individual requirements (alteration of finishes, sizes, stylisation) . This genre of designer furniture is rare, exclusive and is influential when dealing and specialising in interiors with a distinct presence.
