Our Story
Celebrating 100 years of dedication to excellence.
Jonathan Sainsbury
Sainsbury Collection
A collection of over 300 pieces of exceptional classical furniture, reflecting the architectural design and craftsmanship of Robert Adam, William Kent and Thomas Chippendale, among others. All our pieces are created in exactly the same way as the originals; each model is carefully researched, designed and finished with the utmost attention to detail.
Bespoke Furniture
Alongside our Sainsbury Collection, we undertake numerous private commissions. We can create an accurate copy of a particular favourite piece or work with you to design a one-off piece or a range of furniture from scratch. Our bespoke commissions range from the classical to the contemporary in style and all reflect the outstanding quality that we are known for. We also work closely with clients to create architectural interior and exterior elements.
Restoration
The Company’s wealth of experience in antiques and furniture making means that we are uniquely placed to undertake skilled restoration and conservation work. Over 100 years in the business means that we are able to draw on expert knowledge and skills passed down through the generations.
History and Philosophy
2018 marked 100 years of the Sainsbury furniture business since its founding by Jonathan’s great-grandfather, Daniel Sainsbury, in 1918. From early beginnings in antiques, the family business has adapted and diversified and we have now built an enviable reputation internationally for distinguished craftsmanship.
We have been working with Jonathan Sainsbury for many years now across various residential and hospitality projects. They offer an incredible, can do service and create beautiful results. A true gem.
