Hand crafted in Manchester
We have been working with Freya for some time now to develop a range of handcrafted upholstered pieces for Palava. Based in Stockport, Manchester - Freya has been trained to work with our special Palava fabrics, learning how each type needs to be placed with the utmost care.
Not only does Freya make these footstools for us but she also makes our beautiful lampshades. We've all learned new things from this collaboration as all fabrics work differently and our prints always come with complications, like getting the direction right and the correct stretch to make sure you end up with a quality and long lasting piece.
Freya has also been doing a lot of research into making the stools as eco-friendly as possible, as with us here at Palava where it is at the heart of all we do.
We hope in the future to develop our range with Freya, offering a service where you can have your favourite pieces re-upholstered as well as our own vintage finds.
