Bespoke sofas

Woodcroft Manor

A Duresta sofa, dressed in Tora

For the living room at Woodcroft Manor we commissioned a Knole sofa from Duresta, with its outside back and arms in our Tora pattern, plain linen seats and cushions, and rope ties at the turned finials.

We can do the same for you. Choose a sofa from a maker we work with, or bring us a design you love, and we’ll specify the fabric, the scale and where the pattern falls, so it sits centred on the back, seat and arms. If you already own a sofa or chair worth keeping, we can help arrange its reupholstery in our fabric.

Bespoke curtains

Ask for a quote

Linen or velvet

Every pattern works as curtain fabric: linen for a softer, lighter, more natural look, and velvet for a heavier, fuller curtain. Both can be lined.

Made to measure

Send us your window measurements and the heading you like. We work out how much fabric you need, match the pattern across every width, and have your curtains made up for you.

The right scale

Curtains are where our large scale comes into its own. Tell us about the room and we’ll suggest the scale that suits the drop and width.

Upholstery, answered

Fabrics, commissions, reupholstery and curtains.

Which fabrics can I use?

Any colourway of our Panthera, Tora, Penrose Prowl and Gilbert patterns, in our recycled velvet or natural linen, and our silk jacquard where it suits the piece. We can also print our patterns in custom colours.

Can you reupholster a piece I already own?

Yes. Send us photographs and measurements of the piece. We’ll tell you how much fabric it needs and help arrange the reupholstery.

Can I supply my own sofa design?

Yes. Send us a drawing, a photograph or a reference, and we’ll work out the fabric and the pattern placement with the maker.

How much fabric will I need?

It depends on the piece, the pattern repeat and the scale. Tell us what you’re making and we’ll work it out for you before you order.

Can I see the fabric first?

Yes. Samples are £4.20 in velvet or linen and £10 in silk, with free postage. Sample postage is always free.
