What we stock

Nothing here is disposable, and nothing here pretends to be an heirloom either.

Why the marks are small

A maker’s stamp, not a billboard.

Every piece carries the house-mark the way its own material takes one — blind-debossed into leather, branded into the foot of a board, glazed into stoneware near the ring, cast into iron, woven into a selvedge tag. You should have to look for it.

It is a merchant’s mark, which is the oldest kind there is: one struck shape that said whose crate it was, long before anyone thought to print a name across the front of a thing.

The buying rule

If it cannot be repaired, we do not stock it.

That rules out a great deal, and it is the reason the shelves are sixty products deep rather than six hundred. A handle that can be rehung, a blade that can be reground, a rug that can be rewoven.

Ordering

Plainly, and without an account.

Checkout as a guest. One charge, never a subscription and never a recurring payment. Cards are handled on an encrypted page and we never see the number.

If something arrives wrong, write to us and we will make it right — that is the whole returns policy, and the longer version is on the returns page.
