With an upsurge in the interior design industry and a renewed focus on investing in quality that lasts, high-end furniture is definitely trending.

Once a select market for the rich and famous, it’s now more accessible to those who are willing to part with their pennies for something a little more glam. And, aside from trademarks that have always been synonymous with extreme extravagance, there are some excellent household names who are manufacturing collections that fit into this niche market – Harrods is one of them.

But if you’re a design aficionado and love luxury, then you’ll fall head over heels with the world’s most exclusive brands.

Here are our top 5:

Boca do Lobo

Established in Portugal in 2005, Boca do Lobo creates exquisite pieces, each crafted by a team of master artisans, jewellers and specialist painters. Combining ancient manufacturing techniques with modern technology, their flair for marquetry, upholstery, filigree, joinery and metalwork is unmatched.

Driven by passion, pride and a quest to provide their elite clientele with sensational experiences, they have literally taken the design industry by storm. Check out their range at FCI London if you absolutely love their style.

Bentley

Bentley’s home collection was launched in 2013, transforming the refined aesthetics of its automobiles into sophisticated furnishings for your interiors. From mesmerising marbles and leathers to luxurious woods, each piece can be customised in the finishes that make this iconic brand so supremely unique. And, as expected, their workmanship is sublime.

The recent opening of their first Atelier in Milan is the next significant step in the expansion of their offerings.

Koket

A brand with no conventional boundaries, Koket’s founder, Janet Morais, challenges its devotees to feel empowered and make a statement through dazzling design.

From bold prints and gleaming metals to extravagant fabrics and glittering stones, the brand certainly doesn’t compromise on allure. Nor are they ostentatious. Because despite their obvious decadence, each uniquely inspiring piece manages to master its larger-than-life aesthetic and appear sumptuously desirable instead. Let’s call it “Savoire flair”!

Edra

Aside from using supreme materials, embracing artistic tradition and producing some of the classiest furniture on the planet, Edra, from Tuscany, are leaders in technological advancements. With a team of highly specialised researchers, they patented Gellyfoam® in 2004 – a next-generation material that offers superlative comfort – and recently launched The Smart Cushion.

Their inventions place them as masters of innovation in the design industry, enhancing their reputation for timeless elegance and unquestionable panache.

Henredon

Steeped in tradition and with a superior reputation that has carried them from their inception in North Carolina in 1945 to today, Henredon exudes timelessness. Notorious for being infallible, their lengthy success comes down to the simple principles of talent, skill and teamwork.

With an all-American aesthetic made from valuable woods, genuine leather and fine textiles, each piece exemplifies the past but is certain to be loved forever. A sentiment that has ensured that they will grace the homes of the privileged for decades to come.

With many new names on the list such as Fendi Casa, Restoration Hardware, Giorgio Collection and Gamma & Dandy, luxury furniture brands continue to captivate. And with some bespoke showrooms out there hell-bent on showcasing all the best offerings, hunting down your favourites is a breeze.
