WHO WE ARE

Prologue

The inception of our story began in the mind and heart of a 19-year-old Alfred Yow Song Vooi. He began as an apprentice in a small furniture shop when he came to know about the British Chesterfield sofa.

The cradle of the Chesterfield began in Great Britain by the request of the Fourth Earl of Chesterfield, Sir Philip Stanhope. He was a British statesman, diplomat and an acclaimed wit — best remembered for his comprehensive tome published by his son’s widow, entitled Letters to His Son on the Art of Becoming a Man of the World and a Gentleman. He was also looked up to for fashion, as he once requested for furniture which would allow him to sit upright without wrinkling his suit.

The beauty and elegance of the classic Chesterfield captured the heart of our young founder, who immediately began the strenuous journey of mastering his craft in artisanal furniture. While he embodies the spirit of a Craftsman, our Founder has also gone out of his way of learning the trade in the furnishing industry.
