Materials & craftsmanship
Made slowly, on purpose
We work with a short list of materials and know each of them well.
Materials, chosen by hand
We work with a short list of materials and know each of them well.
Solid oak & walnut
Kiln-dried European oak and walnut, chosen board by board for grain and colour.
Linen & bouclé
Natural fibres woven in Spain and Portugal, many with removable, washable covers.
Full-grain leather
Vegetable-tanned hides that darken and soften with every year of use.
Solid brass
Pulls and details cast in solid brass and left to patina naturally.
How a piece is made
Selecting the timber
Each board is graded for grain, colour and moisture before it is cut.
Joinery
Mortise and tenon, dovetails and dowels — joints that outlast screws.
Finishing by hand
Oils and waxes rubbed in by hand, then cured for days before delivery.
Delivered and placed
Our own team brings it home, assembles it and takes the packaging away.
Made slowly, on purpose
Prime Madera Classic began with one bench and a stack of seasoned oak. We still build the same way: solid timber, joinery you can see, finishes rubbed in by hand.
