Celebrating 35 Years of Julian Chichester
In celebration of 35 years at the forefront of the changing landscape of design, Julian Chichester presents a stunning capsule collection of newly reimagined products, one from each of the past four decades, finished in distinctive new materials that demonstrate what the company is famous for - innovation.
“There are many things I draw inspiration from, but mid-century designers and architects are probably my greatest source. Marcel Breuer, Mies Van Der Rohe, Jean Michel Frank, Pauli Ernesti Blomstedt, Jaques Adnet, Eero Saarinen, Constantin Brâncusi, Isamu Noguchi, Marco Zanuso, Kaare Klint and Karl Springer have all been particularly influential.”
Frick Coffee Table
Reimagined by a guest contributor, Hatta Byng, Editor of House and Garden magazine.
“The Frick has an elegance and a lightness. I thought it would be fun to reimagine it in Julian’s glorious red gesso finish. The leather top matches exactly in color, and with the subtle change of finish and slimmest brass detailing between the leather and gesso it feels very chic (to me!).”
Anglo Indian Chest
This chest with its feminine pretty lines gave us the ability to show off our three best skills – gilding, ebonising and fine woodwork. Our collection was just eight pieces when this piece was launched! The new 2024 version in oiled African Walnut brings it beautifully up to date.
African walnut, sometimes referred to as Amazaque, is a beautiful, close grained, stable hard wood which has a finish somewhere between black walnut and Rosewood. Our African Walnut is sealed and finished by hand using natural Tung Oil, therefore variations in depth of colour is inevitable.
Felix Nest of Tables
When first introduced in 2010 the original Felix Nest of Tables featured gilded steel frames and natural Vellum surfaces. Today they are presented with Cane wrapped frames, distressed Rattan surfaces and delicate Aged Brass accents.
Kemp Desk
Reimagined for the present day in a stunning French Limed Oak, the silhouette legs are enhanced with tapered circle accents, and incorporated cable management transforms the Kemp into a timeless piece, worthy of any study.
