It is a big step for a serious antique dealer to start manufacturing furniture. However, after receiving many requests from customers to provide them with identical pieces of the best selling items, we finally decided to make a select number available - though under strict rules.

Our goal is to make exact replicas of the original antique that we have in our possession. So every item is bench made using the original techniques by the same craftsmen who restore our antiques. We use mostly reclaimed wood, or start with an antique frame and simply add to it. Every item is hand finished by our team of antique restorers, replicating the finish of the original antique in every detail.

The end result is that each Replica is unique in its own way, just like the original. Expansion, shrinkage, small cracks, and wood imperfections are all inherent qualities of our product. Variation in consistency, size and color are indeed a big part of what makes our Replicas unique, natural and exclusive.
