Newman & Bright – Art Deco Collection

Introduction to Our Furniture Brand: A Legacy of Craftsmanship and Innovation

Established in 1897, our company has built a reputation for excellence that spans over a century. Our legacy is not just about the time we’ve spent in the industry but the unique expertise we’ve accumulated along the way. We pride ourselves on producing pieces that are more than just functional—they are works of art.

Unique Original Designs: The Epitome of Elegance

One of the hallmarks of our brand is our unique patented designs shown here https://www.newmanandbright.co.uk/art-deco.html . Every piece in our collection reflects a balance of form and function, carefully crafted to provide not only comfort but a visual statement. Our design philosophy is to take the iconic elements of the original designs and fuse them creatively with modern tastes in fashion and architecture. Our patented designs ensure that when you choose us, you’re not only getting an elegant piece but one that is truly one-of-a-kind, unavailable anywhere else.

Superior Value for Quality

At the core of our business is an unwavering dedication to quality. We believe in providing value for money without compromising on the standards we’ve upheld since 1897. Our furniture offers long-lasting durability, crafted using only the finest materials, such as premium leather and wood sourced responsibly from sustainable forests. Each piece is meticulously handmade by skilled artisans who bring years of expertise and an eye for detail to every stage of production. We firmly believe that true luxury lies not just in aesthetic appeal, but in the quality that stands the test of time.

Expertise in Showwood Craftsmanship: A Legacy of Precision

What also sets us apart is our specialisation in show-wood models, where the exposed wooden frames of our pieces become as important as the upholstery. Our show-wood designs reflect the same intricate attention to detail used in the dashboard restoration of vintage cars like Rolls-Royce, Jaguar, and Bentley. This level of precision and mastery is transferred into many of our pieces, ensuring an extraordinary finish that highlights the beauty of a natural wood grain. As veneer specialists, we know how to manipulate wood to create stunning, long-lasting pieces that exude elegance and sophistication.

Tailored to Your Vision: Bespoke Custom Manufacturing

Unlike mass-produced furniture, all of our pieces are manufactured to customer specifications. We understand that every client’s needs are different, and we are committed to crafting personalised furniture that reflects individual style and preferences. From selecting the type of wood and finish to choosing the leather or fabric, every detail is carefully considered and crafted to suit a given space and we collaborate closely with our customers to ensure their vision is brought to life.

Leather Experts: Combining Tradition with Innovation

Our reputation as leather experts is another key element that has distinguished us in the industry. We work exclusively with the highest-quality leathers, from full-grain to top-grain, ensuring that each piece is as durable as it is luxurious. Our knowledge of leather comes from years of experience in sourcing and working with various types of hides, giving us the ability to select the best materials for both aesthetic appeal and long-term resilience. We have provided leather for many purposes – the armour for Russell Crow in Gladiator was one of our most well known projects. Whether it’s a supple leather couch that will age beautifully over time or a sleek leather chair with a modern edge, our team of artisans ensures that each piece offers unparalleled quality.  We likewise have long term relationships with fabric suppliers who are able to provide the variety and quality to suit every project.

Collaborating with Iconic Institutions: The V&A Museum

Our dedication to innovation and heritage is further demonstrated by our collaboration with world-renowned institutions like the Victoria & Albert Museum.  Whilst working with the V&A we had the privilege of designing exclusive new models that showcased the intersection of tradition and contemporary design. This partnership reflected the trust placed in our expertise and reinforced our position as leaders in high-quality, bespoke furniture.

Conclusion

For over a century, we have been pioneers in the world of leather and furniture, blending our rich heritage with forward-thinking designs. Whether you’re seeking the luxury of expertly crafted traditional furniture, or a completely unique piece displaying originality of design, our commitment to quality and innovation ensures that our products will stand the test of time. As we continue to build on our legacy, we invite you to experience the unparalleled craftsmanship, personalised service, and timeless style that have defined us since 1897.
