Special Works - Hand Painting -
Hand painting is an art form that embodies craftsmanship, skill, and tradition. In a world increasingly dominated by mechanisation and mass production, the art of hand painting stands as a testament to the timeless beauty of human creativity and skill. It celebrates the artistry of the individual, the value of tradition, and the enduring allure of handmade craftsmanship.
With a steady hand and keen attention to detail, we apply layers of water based, environmentally friendly paint using size-specific handmade brushes. Each stroke is deliberate and precise in manipulating the paint to achieve the desired effect. We offer, as an option to the discerning traditonalist, a handbrushed painted finish to enhance their commissioned furniture.
