SCANDINAVIAN YOUNGSTER EMIL THORUP, HANDVÄRK

A premium brand offering handcrafted furniture in steel, iron, brass, marble and leather of the highest quality

Behind HANDVÄRK is designer and entrepreneur, Emil Thorup:

“For a number of years, the Danes have shown incredible skills in woodwork, however, I found myself missing an alternative, in which other natural materials could be the cornerstone of the design. I am incredibly fond of metals and stone and felt that we were lacking a brand daring enough to experiment with these kinds of materials, whilst still sustaining the simple and applicable Nordic DNA. For this exact reason I created HANDVÄRK – a premium brand offering handcrafted furniture in steel, iron, brass, marble and leather of the highest quality. These are all very precious and heavy materials to work with, which means I have had to come up with innovative solutions in regard to the production, assembling and packing of the products. This was hugely important to me, as it’s been the main focus of mine to keep the prices at an attractive level. HANDVÄRK places mid-market, similarly to other established, Danish furniture-brands of this category. The efficient production-process from factory to warehouse, along with own distribution channels, allows us to deliver our products at a very reasonable price. Furthermore are all our items produced in the EU under authorized conditions”
