Who We Are

Established in the West Country in 1987 by Andrew and Sarah Balmain, ours is a proudly British furniture brand. In 2015, their daughter Henrietta took over management of Balmain & Balmain, having been involved day-to-day for over a decade.

Growing up surrounded by fabric pattern books and with a mother who specialised in textile design, Henrietta was drawn to the decorating world. Before heading Balmain & Balmain, she worked for over 15 years on design teams at Colefax and Fowler and other leading London fabric houses and still undertakes numerous interiors projects internationally. One recent project — the refurbishment of a chalet in Meribel, France — won the award of “France’s Best Chalet” at the World Ski Awards in January 2018.

Based in the pretty village of Wilton on the Berkshire/Wiltshire borders, we are inspired by our surroundings to create beautifully finished furniture built using the best in traditional and modern manufacturing techniques. Backed by a dedicated team of upholsterers and with excellent relationships with leading decorators and fabric suppliers, Balmain & Balmain is a brand that is gaining a following among those with a good eye for contemporary, stylish interiors.

Why Our Furniture?

Though we make the finest furniture, you won’t find us on the high street or in a high-end design centre — the way we work is a little different. We invite customers to view our range in a typical domestic scene — our home. This makes for a relaxed setting in which to experience our bespoke sofas, chairs and footstools, with leading design expertise on hand to assist in creating the perfect pieces for your home.

All of our furniture is created to your specifications, from the upholstery fabric, the seat depth and height, down to the individual elements such as the piping and colour of the legs — our attention to these details make a unique piece that’s right for your home.
