Mass-produced? Not our thing. If you want furniture that’s made for you — not the showroom — you’re in the right place. This is the Smithers guide to buying custom and bespoke furniture that fits your space, your style, and your no-compromise mindset.
What’s the Difference Between Custom and Bespoke?
- Custom furniture = An existing Smithers design, tailored to your size, fabric, or finish.
- Bespoke furniture = Built from the ground up. Your idea, our design team, full creative control.
Why Go Custom?
- Awkward alcoves or weird layouts
- You want matching finishes across pieces
- You want to level up an existing product with your own twist
Why Choose Bespoke?
- You’ve got a specific vision no one else is making
- You want to recreate a vintage piece with a modern edge
- You want a one-off statement that no one else owns
