Black American walnut
Black American walnut is a slow growing deciduous tree native to north America and Canada. It is a hardwood prized for its dark brown, purplish hue with a sometimes swirling grain, it can display many unique characteristics, such as knots and variations in depth of tone. Walnut will get lighter with age becoming more honeyed over time. We use a protective clear oil finish which enables the timber to age gracefully without heavy discolouration and withstand daily spillage.
European oak
European oak is a slow growing hardwood native tree to Europe. It has a golden to light brown colouring with a variety of grain patterns. Oak is very hard, durable wood and gets darker and richer with age. We use a protective white oil finish to allow the timber to age gracefully without heavy discolouration and withstand daily spillage.
European oak can display a variety of characteristics from straight grain to large swirling crown cut grain Medullary rays, small 'Cats paw' knots all of which are an intrinsic and natural part of the grain pattern.

Why does my fabric require knit-backing – what is it?
The purpose of knit-backing upholstery fabric is to add body, resiliency, and durability whilst also eliminating seam slippage. We would encourage doing this if the fabric you have selected is relatively lightweight, to reinforce it for upholstery use and maintain the durability over the fabric’s lifespan.
If you are providing the fabric to us you will need to ask the fabric supplier to do this for you before sending it to us.
Why does my fabric require fire retardancy treatment – what is it?
All the upholstery we make has to meet the relevant level of fire retardancy according to where it is going.
If the fabric you have selected does not meet the relevant Match and Cigarette test, we would need the fabric to be FR treated, this can usually be done by the fabric house you are buying from.
We will advise if this is necessary when we do a stitch test.
If you are providing the fabric to us you will need to arrange for this to be done before supplying to us.
What is the difference between aniline and treated leather?
Aniline is the most natural-looking leather, with little or no protection so the full beauty of the hide shines through. However, unprotected leathers like this can be marked with oils and also fade in the sun. We like this patina on pieces as they grow more interesting with use, but if this is not acceptable please look at semi-aniline or protected leathers.
Semi-aniline is a treated leather that has a light coating, making it more protected than pure aniline. We would therefore suggest this is used on more high-wear products such as dining chairs.
Fully protected leather has a durable coating applied so it is protected.
What is a pattern repeat?
This is simply the length of the repeat on a fabric. We will need to know this to make sure we can align patterns as much as possible. Larger patterns mean we usually need more than the standard amount of fabric. We will calculate this for you and let you know the required meterage.
Why is there a pattern surcharge?
It takes more time to cut patterned fabrics, as we need to make sure we align the pattern correctly across the piece.
What is the warranty on this piece?
The frame has a lifetime warranty while the cushions and seats have a 2 year warranty. Fabric warranties vary depending on the manufacturer and are not covered by PINCH.
What is the frame made from?
The frame is made from solid beech.
Do you supply an inter-liner?
We supply an inter liner as standard on all upholstery pieces.

Made in Norfolk
We have been working with the same upholstery workshop for many years, producing for our customers and developing our new products from the ground up. We consider them our partners, and appreciate their knowledge and skill and they respect our quality expectations and approach. Together we share a common goal to make the best furniture we can, to take pride in each piece we create, and to enjoy the process as we go along.
Makers who care
Our upholstery is made in a small workshop, and the pieces are hand-made by a small team, and that makes a difference. Many of them have been upholstering for multiple years, and are in tune with making instinctively; they know how much or how little to tension the fabric to achieve the best shape and wear, to make pieces that will last well.
This is not mass production, but this is labour intensive, and as they say, hugely satisfying.
Time honoured making
We blend traditional making methods with modern materials.
A good sofa requires a strong skeleton (the frame) that will stand the test of time. All our sofas are made with solid FSC European hardwood frames, which we guarantee for life.
Each design in our collection is developed and made according to its own needs, and the critical balance between support and comfort. All the components used are of a high calibre that will be noticeable in the sit. With sustainability in mind renewable materials, that offer durability and longevity, are used as much as possible; from hessian to coconut fibre to wool felt.
Individually cut and stitched
We have access to a huge array of fabric suppliers and our team are happy to suggest a fabric to meet your brief if you have not already selected your own. We can work with new production fabric and vintage cloths. The team will ask for a sample to approve if you are supplying your own material to ensure it is suitable for the desired shape, and hard wearing enough to last well.
