Who are Vincent Sheppard?

Vincent Sheppard have been at the forefront of designing and manufacturing furniture since 1992. Our market leading brand, Lloyd Loom has a fabulous collection of indoor and outdoor seating. The furniture is created using a technique where Kraft paper is twisted around a metal wire and woven into unique and individual furniture pieces.

Vincent Sheppard furniture can now be found in over fifty countries worldwide, with headquarters based in Belgium running the whole operation. Our production plants are based in Indonesia a country steeped in history for weaving.

The word craftsmanship is at the cornerstone of what we believe. We honour and preserve the tradition and history of the Lloyd Loom weaving technique. We have developed a very close collaboration with the people of Cirebon, Indonesia, known for weaving and bending rattan. This was the perfect place to establish our main production plant. Utilising the skills and knowledge of the local craftsmen can elevate the products to become pieces of art. Every piece handcrafted to perfection. Over the years we have added to our production range with natural colours and also additional durable materials.

As a company we are not only passionate about our products, but also the local environment and the welfare of our overseas work force. The company also has an ecological mindset and we are very conscious about the consumption of resources, recycling and the cleansing of waste water. In 2013 we received the FSC label by the Forest Stewardship Council which is a symbol of environmental, economic and social sustainability.

Indoor Ranges

Our indoor furniture range is designed with comfort at the forefront. we create tables, chairs, sofas, lighting and accessories in many different materials with a very distinct design style. We are known to experiment with all types of materials and combinations and create for all tastes.

Outdoor Furniture

Originally the outdoor range mainly consisted of Lloyd Loom furniture that was treated for use outdoors. Over the years the demand for great qualitative designs in a variety of all weather materials helped us to create a new range of synthetic furniture that can be left outside all year round. Comfort is our upmost priority and we are very proud to supply some of the most beautiful restaurants and hotels across the globe.

So for something a little different why not take a look at the Vincent Sheppard furniture range.

Kings Interiors supply the Vincent Sheppard range. For further details please call our Beeston branch on 0115 925 8347 or email info@kingsinteriors.com.

Design a country-inspired living room

If you live in a classic, country cottage then you are likely to be someone who loves rustic, homely interior design. However, country-inspired decor is not necessarily restricted to homes situated in amongst the fields and farmland; many people who live in the busy city pine for the great outdoors and would like to introduce a traditional, cosy atmosphere into their city home.

There are a few straightforward but vital things that should be present for any country-style home:



Choosing the right furniture

Probably the most important part of creating a rustic- country-inspired room is purchasing the right furniture.

Tetrad sofas are a brilliant example of the style needed. They look rustic but with a modern twist. The classic scrolled arms are synonymous with the style of sofa found in stately homes up and down the country; but the materials used to make them are very much the best of modern manufacturing.
Sofas such as these provide comfort to a family as well as complementing the overall classic, country feel.



Colours

A country home should be filled with different shades of brown, cream, maroon, and dark green – all of which connote the outdoors which you are trying to emulate within your home.
As you can see from the sofas above, you should add cushions (2 or more) for a snug and warm ambience.

As the rustic theme is all about bringing the outdoors indoors, it is important to have lots of wood and greenery within the room. A wooden floor is a must-have to achieve the overall look but you can also incorporate it through an oak table, corner tables, ornaments, and picture frames, and plenty of plants are well suited to this style as well.


Wallpaper

As the word “rustic” suggests, it is all about using natural materials but also about using traditional methods of decorating, hence why a lot of people like to incorporate wallpaper into the design. A busy wallpaper (probably filled with different shades of flowers) is particularly rustic, but if used on every wall can make a room look smaller. Instead, perhaps just decorate one wall with it.


At King’s Interiors we have a large collection of Tetrad furniture available for you to explore. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
