Canvas
A fox in rice paddies across both doors. Available with a bar interior, shelving or drawers.


Inside and out
Every cabinet and chest is configured to its owner: shelves, drawers, a bar, a drop-down desk or a jewellery tray, with soft-close runners and hinges designed for the piece.
The tambour sideboard carries the pattern across every slat, so the picture stays whole as the doors glide round to the back. For a walnut sideboard or cabinet, the Kitsune pieces are made in smoked walnut and figured ash, with the fox marquetry across the doors.

Tell us your access and we will check. Pieces arrive fully assembled and crated, so we confirm measurements and routes before production.
Yes. Each piece is made by hand once you have approved the finish, usually in 12 to 16 weeks. Headboards and wall panels are quicker, at 6 to 10 weeks.
Yes. Any piece can be made in another size, in light or dark veneer palettes from more than 555 veneers, and with brass, nickel, copper or bronze. We send samples before anything is made.
Every piece is made to order, so most are not on display. We send samples of the veneers, metals and finishes first, so you can see them in your own light before we begin. The Panthera Totem, Panthera Tambour Sideboard and Panthera Side Table can be viewed by appointment at the Bert Frank studio on Farringdon Road, London.

Tell us which piece and where it is going. We reply with finishes, lead time and a pro forma invoice.
