Birgit Israel

Inspired by my love for beauty, history, traditional craftsmanship and travel; my aim is to transmute what I have seen, learned, collected and fell in love with during the last 20 years. The B.I. collection launched in 2011, working with specialist master craftsmen based in Germany. We are producing a unique, bespoke collection of handmade furniture using classic materials, such as piano lacquer, vellum, and metals. The finish on many pieces is highly polished and requires many days of labour.

Our aim is to produce items that are timelessly elegant and which will develop their own patina and become more beautiful over time. This year we have been working on new lines for the collection. They feature beautiful handcrafted lighting, exclusive mouth blown accessories and a range of stunning hand printed cushions with special metallic inks.
