The Sustainable Side of Handmade Furniture

Aside from the livelihood of the makers, beautifully handcrafted products are one of a kind works of art to be treasured for generations to come. Whether carving, casting metal, lacquering, sewing, tufting, pleating, or welting, the craftsmen behind KOKET and other renowned furniture brands who employ handmade makers craft each piece they work on with the utmost care to ensure they stand the test of time. A stark comparison to machine-made furniture which breaks after a few years of use. This makes masterfully crafted furniture sustainable in many ways as it is far from part of our vast throwaway society. So we cannot let their knowledge and skills die!
