One off pieces. One time to buy.
‌
Welcome to our Autumn/Winter Edit of ready to buy pieces.
‌
Throughout 2026, we have been enjoying celebrating ten years of design and craftsmanship, creating some beautiful one off pieces that are now available to buy at incredible prices. Every armchair, sofa and ottoman is made entirely by hand in our Cotswold workshop, many in collaboration with some of the most distinguished interior designers in Britain and America using brand new fabrics from Christopher Farr, Mulberry and Sister Parish to name a few! Each is shaped by traditional upholstery methods and a lasting commitment to sustainability.
‌
This is a rare opportunity to take one of these beautiful pieces home in time for Christmas!

The Penny Ottoman is part of our recent collaboration with the amazing Penny Morrison Ltd bringing together traditional British craftsmanship and a shared love of colour, pattern and beautifully layered interiors.

Handmade to order in our Cotswolds workshop, the ottoman is designed to sit comfortably alongside the Penny sofa or make a characterful statement in its own right. Isn’t it beautiful, inside and out!

From bold geometrics and decorative florals to classic stripes, each fabric brings an entirely different personality to the piece, offering another opportunity to play with pattern, contrast and texture within a room.

Our Hendal slipper chair is seen here upholstered in the beautiful Mulberry Home Martock Sprig, featured in their new ‘Garden Party’ collection, a fabric that is archival-inspired and taken from a fragment of a late 18th-century document.

The Hendal chair has been designed as a versatile accent piece for reading nooks, hallways, nurseries and smaller spaces, or equally can be positioned as a pair for larger lounge rooms. This version of the chair is to be finished with fixed upholstery, with or without a skirt.

The Penny sofa and ottoman collection celebrates the versatility of Penny’s textiles, demonstrating how a single silhouette can take on different personalities through fabric, tailoring and finish. Designed with fully removable loose covers, the sofa can be reimagined season after season, adapting effortlessly to different interiors, schemes and styles.

Nasia took part in a fascinating panel discussion this weekend, ‘Why Natural Materials Matter: Building Healthier, Longer-Lasting Interiors’ at Decorex International | Europe’s Luxury Interior Design Show facilitated by Emma Tweedie The Campaign for Wool and joined by Emma Linney-Taylor Harrison Spinks and interiors Editor & journalist Kerryn Harper-Cuss

The use of natural materials is core to our business. Every piece is meticulously handmade in our Cotswolds workshop using carefully selected natural materials and time honoured upholstery techniques. Beneath the fabric, FSC certified solid timber frames and hand tied coil springs are layered with materials such as British wool, coir, horsehair, feather, down, hessian and natural latex to create exceptional comfort and enduring quality.

This talk was part of the brilliant Sustainability Space theatre sponsored by B•ABLE and HAINES

We were delighted to partner again with Mulberry Home for the launch of their beautiful new collection, ‘Garden Party’, a collection of decorative fabrics designed to capture the joyful essence of an English summer garden in full bloom.
‌
Our Kingston sofa is seen here upholstered in the collection’s namesake, ‘Garden Party’ which revives a 1920s hand-block print into an opulent floral of hydrangeas and lilies.

The Kingston sofa is the quintessential English country house sofa with restrained low-swept arms that almost disappear behind voluminous pillows of luxurious feather and down.
‌
Every Lorfords Contemporary piece is meticulously handmade in our Cotswold workshop using carefully selected natural materials and time honoured upholstery techniques.

Absolutely delighted to see our Penny Morrison X Lorfords Contemporary ’Penny’ sofa in the October issue of Homes & Gardens

Our ‘sofa in many guises’ has launched this month and continues our 10th anniversary celebrations, with Penny Morrison Ltd being one of our earliest clients and a long-standing creative partner!

With fully removable loose covers and a choice of finishes, the sofa can be tailored to your space and reimagined over time in any Penny Morrison or bespoke fabric - from a crisp box-pleated skirt in Ticking Stripe to a softer gathered finish in one of Penny’s decorative florals, or a clean, skirtless silhouette that reveals its elegant turned legs.

Many thanks to for including us in your Style Stories and as always to Jo Bailey

It’s always such a delight to see our pieces in their new homes, and what an incredible home this is! Our Hanover arm chairs, upholstered in fabrics by Colefax and Fowler are seen here in the beautiful ‘Viking Room’ of Knockderry castle, a room designed with her clients, by Sally Homan of Robertson Lindsay Interiors

The Hanover: a Regency-inspired armchair that exudes simple lines, elegance and comfort, coming together in a timeless and unusual design that is equally at home in a modern apartment or a classical country house library.

Thank you for sharing!
