Exquisite timeless designs
Our heritage inspired metalwork concepts use the style, ethos, and historical references of historic styles as inspiration. Instead of copying to recreate traditional work, we refine and update to create a fresh uniqueness. Although influenced by historical references these designs are a mark of their time creating an exquisite timeless feel that is not trend led. In heritage settings this sympathetic approach clearly evidences change. The focus is on ‘managing change’ which is inclusive of the values and preferences of owners.
