How we choose what we sell
We opened in 2014 in a former printworks, with four sofas and a table. We now sell work from twelve small workshops in Ireland, Britain, France and Portugal, each one we have visited and most we have known for years.
Nothing on the floor is a sample you cannot buy. If you like a piece, we can tell you who made it, what it is made of and how long the next one takes.
On Saturdays it gets busy after noon. Come in the morning, or on a Thursday evening, if you want an hour on the sofas.
