Every order undergoes a meticulous design and development process, to understand your unique specifications and preferences to produce one of a kind tables, chairs and sideboards to perfectly suit your home’s personality, architectural style and environment.
French Tables furniture is exquisitely custom-made and available direct from the manufacturer. Australia wide and international design consultations are welcome.
1. CONCEPT DESIGN
An initial concept sketch is drawn by our talented and creative designer Mark Alexander, following an initial consultation which will determine your specific needs in terms of size, shape, style, design of leg and base, colour, parquetry pattern and fabric requirements.
2. SCALE PATTERN DRAWINGS
The concept sketch is then developed into a detailed scale drawing to the exact dimensions of selected table length and width. Your bespoke parquetry pattern is carefully mapped out and designed to complement your home’s unique style and environment.
3. PROFILE DEVELOPMENT
Further customisation of the materials, base style, parquetry pattern, final finishes and any other custom details you would like can be made, to ensure every piece of French Tables furniture is one-of-a-kind giving its own distinct character and style.
4. MANUFACTURING
In the production stage, each individual piece of timber is carefully and accurately handcrafted by our skilled artisans, and the entire project is personally overseen by Mark Alexander to ensure the highest quality workmanship and finishes are applied.
5. POLISHING
Your chosen colour and finish is precisely applied by hand using a lengthy and meticulous French polishing technique – where many thin layers are carefully rubbed into the timber, slowly building up the polish to deliver the required depth and lustre, completed in an Italian wax to achieve a liveable everyday finish.
6. COMPLETE
Once your French Table furniture is complete, we will arrange the careful transportation and delivery by our experienced team, and can provide further advice and support on the best placement, styling and maintenance of your bespoke french tables, chairs or sideboard.
