E L E M E N T A L Taking its cue from the natural world, the Elemental collection is the epitome of style. Radiating warmth throughout, this striking theme features earthy tones partnered with luxe accents of copper and bronze. The addition of refined stonework and the rich chocolate hue of Emperador marble introduces another layer of prestige to this already magnificent scheme. With clean lines and a minimal form, this theme exhibits captivating spherical motifs throughout. Enhancing the iron framed furniture designs to the graceful curves of the velvet upholstery, the hypnotic silhouettes of Elemental are offset by subtle pops of on-trend hues such as ruby red and dusty pink.

L U X E Beautifully delicate and timeless, our Luxe theme mirrors the dazzling styling reminiscent of world class hotels. With exquisite detailing adding a dash of embellishment, this theme is defined by its polished metalwork, marble adornment, cascading chandeliers and mesmerising curves. Drawing on a soft palette of grey, taupe and silver, this distinctly feminine theme also incorporates warming tones of champagne gold and rose pink to create a harmonious and sophisticated scheme. With many of these products finished by hand, a wonderful sense of uniqueness runs through this theme. From hand hammered metal furniture to recycled frosted glass, no two products are identical.

Libra was the result of an epic journey across the globe to India. Joe and Christine McLaughlin left the UK in 1969 on a three year journey which would take them via Portugal to Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, ending in South Africa in 1971. They collected antiques and artefacts along their journey which they sent home. Upon returning to the UK they began selling their wares to independent retailers. And so Libra was born. Four decades on, our family owned business aims to inspire our customers through passion, knowledge and instinct, providing them with beautifully crafted products that sell.
