Leporello's creativity and diversity of style was on show at Decorex 2011. With the launch of new designs for their Elysian French Furniture Range, paint colours and techniques, Leporello's hand made furniture made to order, offers great versatility in style and look from sophisticated French classic to rustic to contemporary.

The new paint treatment specially created for the Elysian range is a distressed Antique French finish available in Picasso Black, Reine Claude Green, Elysian Grey & Artichoke.

Quite a departure for Leporello is the introduction of French polished wood finishes, in particular Cherry for its unique properties of colour and patine when polished. The combination of painted wood and polished wood allows many interesting combinations to create unique furniture for our clients.

The new Elysian Writing Table design is a fine example of Leporello's skilled craftsmanship and attention to detail. The desk is a faithful reproduction of classic French style made in Cherry Wood with a leather top, hand dyed to client's colour specification and fitted with decorative brassware cast from antique originals – sourced from England. Hand painted in Picasso Black with decorative French polished antique Cherry Wood inlay and top.

It offers great flexibility in style, classic as featured or strikingly contemporary depending on the paint finish and fittings.

The Elysian Serving/Console Table is an elegant new addition to the Elysian Dining range, hand painted in antique greys with a natural French polished cherry wood top. This piece may be painted in any of Leporello's paint colours and treatments with a French polished Cherry Wood top or painted or fitted with glass.

As with all Leporello's furniture, it is available in a range of paint colours and treatments and bespoke fittings upon request.

The Elysian Range – elegant, stylish dining with contemporary flair…

Leporello's Elysian Dining Furniture collection designed by owner, Charles Kimpton, meets classic design with contemporary flair. "For me designing furniture is like creating a sculpture. I seek to create something that is elegant, flowing, well observed and interesting, whilst mindful of its practical application."

French influenced, the stylish Elysian Dining Room Furniture range includes an Extending Dining Table to seat 6-12. The Table top can be fitted with Glass/Mirrored Glass or Antiqued Glass, Painted or made from Cherry Wood and French Polished.

The Elysian Chairs are available with/without arms and can be fully upholstered in your choice of fabric or caned. Exquisite Serpentine shaped fronted Serving Tables and Sideboard (Two and Three Door Designs) & Glass Cabinets complete the look.
