FR Review:
Exceptional, high-quality painted cabinetry is the hallmark of Smallbone of Devizes, a London-based firm with an elite following in New York and other hubs worldwide. This firm claims to allow clients to choose “any color from the twenty million or so the human eye can detect” and will paint each piece by hand, according to client-specified painting techniques. Smallbone uses a variety of woods for its cabinet construction, the most popular choices being oak, black walnut, poplar, maple and chestnut. Smallbone also designs custom furniture and wall paneling.
To ensure optimum client relations, the firm assigns a personal design team consisting of designers, a draftsperson, and a professional installation manager to each project. Some clients report that the quality is not quite up to the price, while others are completely satisfied, praising the designs as “free-flowing, stately and elegant.” Smallbone was the supplier for all 129 residential kitchens in Manhattan’s prestigious ONE57 development.
Representative Client Comments:
“Stunning results, if you can deal with the wait.” “There are now enough US-based Smallbone alternatives to forgo the hassle of dealing overseas with your rep.” “No one compares for an extraordinary showpiece.” “Better than custom, they know the kitchen business inside-out.”
