THE ART OF SOURCING

Every collection begins long before we enter the studio.

It begins inside old homes, forgotten workshops, estate sales, antique markets and places where history has been awaiting to be discovered.

People often ask is how we find our pieces, but the truth is there is not formula.

Sourcing is less about searching and more about recognizing.

Most of the furniture we encountered never becomes part of our collections. We look beyond perfection, instead we search for presence, objects that feel honest in their craftsmanship, balanced in their proportions and capable of continuing their life in a contemporary home.

Sometimes is the way the wood has aged. Sometimes it is a handcrafted detail that reveals the makers skill, other times it is simply a feeling that can not be explained .

We have learned to trust that instinct.

The search itself has become one of our favorite parts of the process. There is something very rewarding about uncovering a piece that has become overlooked, imagining not only where it has been, but where it could go next.

Not every beautiful object belongs in our work.

Some are complete as they are, others no longer fit the way we live today. The pieces we choose leave room for conversation. They allow us to introduce the leather in a way that feels natural,  as it was always meant to become part of their story.  

Every objects carries traces of the people who built it, cared for it and lived with it before us. That history is never something we try to erase, it is precisely what draws us in.

In many ways sourcing is an act of listening to the craftsmanship or history.

Listening for the feeling that tell us a piece is ready to begin again.

The objects we bring home are never an acquisition, they are stories waiting to be continued.

They are for those who collect them.
