Our story
It all started when we were approached by long standing customer Marco Pierre White, to help furnish a luxury hotel. Marco’s passion for traditional Howard and Sons furniture led to Lorfords designing and manufacturing bespoke copies of one of England’s most sought after makers. Our small collection of traditionally constructed and upholstered luxury furniture, known as Lorfords Created, was very well received.
The business has gone from strength to strength with a reputation founded on unsurpassed quality, comfort and durability combined with the timeless style and impeccable taste you would expect from Lorfords.
Traditionally constructed and upholstered furniture, handmade in our Cotswold studio.
Tailored to you.
On a journey towards the lightest possible environmental impact.

In light of our rapidly changing world we have adapted and adjusted the way we work, and in 2021 changed our name to reflect this: Lorfords Created became Lorfords Contemporary.
This doesn’t mean that we only produce contemporary furniture; in fact, nothing could be further from the truth. The new name shows that we have embraced contemporary thinking and priorities, with an absolute focus on sustainability. We believe that sustainable, handcrafted, luxury furniture is what we, our customers and the planet need right now. In our book nothing could be more contemporary than sustainable luxury.
