Bespoke

More and more clients are looking for furniture that is individual and bespoke. Crucially though, we find that they often like to be involved in the creative process, to help with the decision making so that they end up with the perfect piece: something that truly reflects their style and home. So at PGV, we have devised a collaborative process whereby this can happen. We have worked with both private clients to tailor something incredibly personal and also with architects to weave in their brand identity to a piece or collection. Over the years we have developed great relationships with wonderful craftspeople around the UK who we have commissioned to add their various embroidery, cross-stitch or woodworking skills to our upholstered pieces, making sure that each project is truly unique.

Every piece we create is made to your exact specifications with all of our fabrics sourced from leading design houses, ensuring you find the perfect match for your vision.

With an expert team delivering quality results, we use old-world craftsmanship with high-grade materials and techniques to make pieces that will stand the test of time and hopfully exceed all expectations.

If a client has a much loved chair then we will strip it (if necessary) and recover. Alternatively we can source a piece, or advise on where to look, discussing style, era  and dimensions – aiming to get as near as possible to the specification. Or we can work with our frame-makers to cover all design variables, including specific sizes, so furniture fits the space allocated perfectly.

Most clients look at the website as a starting point, but we are, of course, delighted to work with any new suggestions. Normally we meet, online or in person, at this point and chat at length. After looking at the different methods we have used such as embroidery or digital printing, the things that give the chair its individuality, we then go onto discuss colours and patterns.

Having discussed the interior of the room the chair will go in; the colour palette, usage, the artwork on the wall or the colours of cushions and rugs, personal motifs etc we will do a fabric search and bring back between 20-30 samples. These can be simply textured or plain; something with a small all over pattern or a boldstatement fabric – its up to you! Often a bespoke chair will have a combination of fabrics, clashing or blending – according to the spirit of the furniture. The final design of the chair will be decided once the fabric is chosen

Now the making can start, this will normally take around 2-4 weeks, photos can be sent at each phase if the client wishes. The client will consulted at every step of the way to ensure the finished piece is truly unique and reflects their style and taste. By using this Polly Granville service you will be creating your very own heirloom.
