Wargrave was first mentioned in the Doomsday Book of 1086 where it was named ‘Weir grove’, a village on the banks of the river Thames, we couldn’t not name one of our collections after our village especially since one of the main roads is named after the Queen herself, Victoria.
The pieces in The Wargrave Collection are derived from her love of ornateness in style, which was legendary, and manifested through her own choices of Royal décor, room design and furniture piece selection. People wanted to emulate their Queen and feel part of her wealth – the Victorian era produced pieces that made a statement, rich in colour and style.
As with all our collections, each piece is handmade and are interchangeable with handles, door style, feet options etc.
